The qualifications include requirements for each member of the board to participate in training or service as well as a commitment by the full board to engage in activities such as strategic planning and board self-assessment to help guide the direction of the district.  Pictured is Mrs. Katy Johnson, Vice President Mrs. Amy Burrier, President Mr. Richard Gooding, Mr. Ben Overton, and Mrs. Sally Green.
