Board Member Election

Ocean View School District (OVSD) is considering a new system for electing Board Members. Currently, under the “At-Large election” system, all voters within District boundaries can vote for all five Board Members. With the transition to “By-Trustee Area elections,” voters will elect one Trustee whose home address is within the same designated geographic area as the voter.

While this shift changes how Board Members are elected, it will not affect:

  • School boundaries
  • School services, programs, and resources 
  • OVSD’s commitment to providing educational excellence

Proposed Maps (Updated May 13, 2025)

As Ocean View School District continues to explore a new system for electing Board members, the Board of Trustees will consider, select, and approve a trustee area map during the May 13, 2025, OVSD Board of Trustees’ Meeting. Currently, under the at-large election system, all voters within the District can vote for all five Board Members. With the transition to a by-trustee area election system, beginning in November 2026, voters will elect one Trustee who resides within their designated geographic area. The suggested trustee-area maps are available for review below:
