Jan. 27, 2021: Bronxville's Non-Partisan Committee for the Nomination and Election of School Trustees (the "NPC") is accepting applications for candidates interested in the position of school board trustee. The deadline to submit is Friday, February 19th, 2021.
The School Trustees serve three-year terms on the school board and set the broad policy for the direction of the school. The seven trustees provide leadership and direction to the school's administrators and make important decisions on a wide array of topics, including strategic planning, curriculum, technology, personnel issues, finance, construction, facilities, and the student body. Elected by the Bronxville community, each trustee plays a vital role in the continued excellence of the school.
Any resident interested in running for School Trustee or who would like to suggest candidates should contact the NPC as soon as possible. The application form can be found on the NPC website, www.bronxvillenpc.com.

What does the NPC do?
The NPC was formed in 1936 to:
-Foster the election of Trustees of the Bronxville School on a non-partisan basis.
-Seek qualified Bronxville residents who are interested in serving on the school board. Nomination by the NPC is not a requirement to run for the school board.
-Actively solicit community input about all applicants, then nominate a candidate for each open position, being as transparent as possible to the Bronxville community in its process.
-Be representative - with twenty-one elected Bronxville residents, three from each election district.
