1008 - Election and Organization

The board as a body corporate and political subdivision of the State of Utah possesses powers delegated to it by the Constitution and Laws of the State of Utah together with the responsibilities imposed thereby and is responsible for the district's educational program.
The laws assign powers, duties, and responsibilities to the board as a whole, not to individual members. Individual members shall have authority to act for the board only when specifically authorized to do so by the board.
While board members are elected from various voting districts, once they are elected they have the responsibility of representing the entire district.
