board members
The Troup County Board of Education is comprised of seven
members elected by the people. They serve four-year terms and are
elected by districts on a staggered basis. Board members annually
elect their chair and vice-chair.
The Troup County Board of Education sets district policy and
appoints a superintendent, who in turn selects administrators to
head the system's administrative divisions and carry out the
Board's policy.
