Bath Central School District is governed by a seven-member board of education elected by qualified voters of the district.

The board has total responsibility for the educational program of the district, its financing and control. It establishes policies for operation of the school district. Members are public officials who serve without pay for five-year terms. As our elected representatives and as officers of New York State, the board must carry out duties imposed by the state's Legislature, Board of Regents, and Commissioner of Education.

The school board has no legal or formal connection with any other local government body. Its functions are carried out through district officers, administrators, and personnel.

Bath CSD school board meetings are held the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in various locations within the District and are open to the public.
