Kanagawa Prefectural Board of Education (神奈川県教育委員会) is the board of education of the Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.

The board consists of six members; one of them is elected as the chair (教育委員長), and one of them is appointed by the board as the superintendent (教育長).

The board has recently banned all incoming and outgoing exchange students due to concerns involving the H1N1 outbreak.
