School Board Vacancy
The Kelseyville Unified School District Board of Trustees invites interested community members to apply to become a provisional board member, serving a term that ends in November 2026. The successful candidate will then be able to run as an incumbent for a full term.
Applications will be available via the KVUSD website (kvusd.org) and the district office beginning January 2. The deadline for submission is January 30. Interviews will be held at a Special Board Meeting on February 10 starting at 10:00 am.
The basic criteria to serve as a KVUSD board member include residing within the district boundaries, being a registered voter, having no conflicts of interest that would invalidate service (such as being a KVUSD employee), and being at least 18 years of age.
The role of the school board is to make sure KVUSD is responsive to the values, beliefs and priorities of the Kelseyville community. The Board works with the superintendent to set direction, establish an effective and efficient structure, provide support, ensure accountability, and advocate for children in Kelseyville schools.
In addition to helping shape local education, board members receive health insurance through the district.
The time commitment to serve is about four hours per month. Board members usually attend one regular monthly meeting and occasional special meetings, for which they prepare by reading materials provided in advance. Meetings usually last about two hours.
The current vacancy was created when long-time board member Rick Winer resigned.

Our Board
The Kelseyville Unified School District Board of Education consists of five members who are elected at-large by the entire Kelseyville community to serve four-year terms.
Role of the Board
The function of the KVUSD Board of Education is to serve the Kelseyville community, which includes students, parents, and employees.
This five-member Board is the policy-making body that governs the Kelseyville Unified School District. The Board is charged with providing a quality educational program for students in grades kindergarten through 12 in accordance with the California Constitution, the laws of the State, and adopted Board policies.
How to Participate in a Board Meeting
Citizens Invited
The Board of Education usually meets on the third Tuesday of the month to conduct district business.
The agenda for some meetings may include a closed, or executive, session. During this session, the Board may consider certain topics such as the appointment, employment, and dismissal of employees, and student disciplinary cases. Any official action on these matters must be taken in a public meeting.
Meetings are normally held in the Dr. Peter J. Quartarolo Board Room located at Kelseyville Unified School District, 4410 Konocti Road, Kelseyville, CA 95451.
Addressing the Board
At each meeting, members of the public and District employees may comment on or ask questions of the Board on agenda and nonagenda items subject to reasonable constraints.
The Board rarely acts immediately on issues brought before it for the first time. Even with more familiar issues, the Board takes action only after its members thoroughly examine all aspects of the matter.
Upcoming Events
Board's Vision
Success for today, through the cooperative involvement of students, parents, educators, and the total community.
Preparation for tomorrow, through academic achievement, technological skills and understanding, and the development of critical thinking and reasoning skills for all students.
