Board of Education are to operate the public schools of Fauquier County by providing them with policy for the day-to-day supervision
of schools, establishing goals and objectives for each aspect of the school system's operation based upon the identified needs
of the community, and to provide a framework of general rules and guidelines for school system administration affecting major
educational and financial issues of the Fauquier County School Division. The five School Board members are elected for four-year
terms; one member represents each of the county's five magisterial (election) districts.
