Board of Education
The Delaware Valley Regional Board of Education has nine members elected by registered voters, to a 3 year term. Three members are elected from Holland, two from both Alexandria and Kingwood, and one from both Frenchtown and Milford. The board is responsible for making numerous policies and regulations. They are also given the task of perform the budget cuts. 2012 brought a change to the electoral process of these members. They voted to move the School Board elections from April to the November General Election. Those elected in 2009 (below) will be up for reelection in November 2012. The only seat contested in 2012 is Holland's.

Famous quotes containing the words board and/or education:
“This morning I threw up at a board meeting. I was sure the cat was out of the bag, but no one seemed to think anything about it; apparently it’s quite common for people to throw up at board meetings.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
“The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
