Agency Leadership

Board of Directors

Great Prairie AEA is governed by a nine-member Board of Directors, consisting of five directors representing designated districts and four at-large superintendents elected by their peers. The Board meets monthly to establish agency policy and oversee the budget. The area served by the Great Prairie Area Education Agency is divided into five equally populated director districts.

Board meetings begin at noon on the second Tuesday of each month.  Agendas are posted at least 24 hours in advance, and the public is always welcome to attend.
