The Board of Education, Unified School District 207, would like to solicit letters of application from district patrons residing on Fort Leavenworth who have children within the school district and are interested in serving on the school board. As a result of a current Board member relocating due to military orders, a position will be appointed in June 2012.

 

Title 10, section 973(c), Federal Public Law “allows an officer (or a noncommissioned officer) to hold nonpartisan civil office on an independent school board that is located exclusively on a military reservation.” Military spouses are also eligible for appointment and encouraged to apply.

 

            Applicants should submit a letter of interest that discusses their reasons for wanting to serve on the Board, and a resume. These positions are appointed by the Commanding General, and all Board members serve at his pleasure.

 

            Letters should be submitted by FRIDAY, May 25th, 2012 to: COL Myron J. Griswold, U.S. Army (Ret), President, Fort Leavenworth USD 207 Board of Education, 207 Education Way, Fort Leavenworth, KS 66027-1425. If submitted through email, send care of bmelick@usd207.org.
