About The Board:

The five members of the West Contra Costa Unified School District Board of Education are elected by voters in the community for a term of four years. Board elections take place in November every other year. New board members are sworn in on or after the first Friday of December following elections. The board elects its president and clerk each year in December.

All school board meetings, except closed sessions, are open to the public. Regular meetings are usually scheduled for the first and third Wednesdays of each month. Regular meetings are held in the Lovonya DeJean Middle School Multipurpose Room, 3400 Macdonald Ave., Richmond. Public session begins at 6:30 p.m.

Regularly scheduled Board meetings are broadcast live over Radio Station KECG 88.1 and 97.7 FM.

Regular Board meetings are also broadcast by the City of Pinole on PCTV Channel 26 and HCTV Channel 28, the Hercules city cable channel, and KCRT Channel 28.
