School Board
The Oelwein School Board strives to provide an environment where students can be Happy, Healthy, and Awesome in their educational pursuits.
The Oelwein Community School District is governed by a seven-member Board of Education. Each volunteer member is elected at-large for a four-year term. Meetings are held the 3rd Monday of each month in the Central Administration Offices at 7:00 p.m. unless otherwise noted. All meetings are open to the public. The board is charged with selecting a superintendent and setting educational and fiscal policies for the school district.
We believe that each student can graduate ready for college and/or a career. To do so, we will provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging learning environment that meets individual wellness, social and emotional needs.
