The Dinwiddie County School Board is made up of five elected members serving four-year terms each time elected. The school board supervises the day-to-day operations of the public schools, implements and enforces school laws/policies, cares for and manages the school divisions’ properties, provides for the consolidation of schools, determines the length of the school term, determines the methods of teaching, appoints the division superintendent, and hires, employs, and terminates personnel.

In an effort to distribute documents associated with Board meetings more quickly, efficiently and cost effectively, Dinwiddie County School Board began leveraging the Internet to better communicate with the public starting February 2009. All Board meeting dates, information, and minutes are now posted on http://boarddocs.com/vsba/dinwiddie/Board.nsf.
