Cooperative Board

The OUB Cooperative Board is made up of seven members who have served or are serving on local boards of education. The Board appoints the OUB district superintendent, subject to the NYS Education Commissioner's approval, to serve as its chief executive officer. 

Boards of Cooperative Educational Services are established by the Education Commissioner at the request of component school boards and are governed by a board of 5-15 members, elected to three-year terms by those school boards.
