    Your School Board  

     
    The Burton School District Board of Education is comprised of five members elected to four-year terms by the voters of Porterville. By establishing and implementing policy, the board is dedicated to ensuring the success of every student in the district through clear, concise direction to the superintendent. The board is responsible for hiring the superintendent and instructs him/her to focus every district staff member and all resources on the goal of improving and maintaining student achievement.
