Board of Education

Meet the School Board

The Sun Prairie Area School District Board of Education is made up of seven elected community members to serve three-year terms. The Board appoints two non-voting student members that each serve a one-year term. All School Board elections are nonpartisan and held in April. The superintendent is appointed by the Board.

Entire School Board

SPASD Board of Education meetings are typically held on the 2nd Monday (at the District Office) and 4th Monday (at City Hall) of each month and will typically start at 6:00 p.m.

These meetings may be streamed live via KSUN. Please check their website directly at sunprairiemediacenter.com. If live-streaming is not available the recorded meeting is typically uploaded to the Sun Prairie Media Center's website within 48 hours.
