  • Shakopee Public Schools is proud to have seven community members serve on its School Board. The Board of Education governs Shakopee School District #720. The School Board also hires the Superintendent; approves staff hirings, resignations, terminations and leaves of absence; sets the annual local school levy; approves expenditures; approves educational programs; and ensures proper facilities and equipment are available to support teaching and learning in the District. The School Board is also highly engaged with the community that they serve, and their continual focus is on the educational success of students and continued growth of our school community. 

    The seven board members are elected at large during the November general election in even-numbered years.  Four board members are up for election one year and the other three are up for election two years later. 

    As of May 16, 2022, Shakopee Public Schools also welcomed two (2) Shakopee High School students to serve as ex-officio members of the School Board. Shaunya Kumar (Class of 2026) and Bryan Phan (Class of 2027) serve as student representatives for the 2025-26 school year.  To learn more about Shakopee's partnership with the Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA) to support student voice, click here.
