The Kuna School Board is the school district's policy-making body, establishing the principles that govern the daily operation of the school system. Each of the five trustees represents specific geographic zones in the district, called zones. Individual members have no authority to act on their own but meet as a board in a formal session. They receive no salaries or benefits and are elected to a four-year term.
Our Board of Trustees includes:
Zone 1: Hillary Lowe, hslowe@kunaschools.org
Zone 2: JD Grant, jdgrant@kunaschools.org
Zone 3: Kyrsti Bruce, knbruce@kunaschools.org
Zone 4: Kim Nixon, knixon@kunaschools.org
Zone 5: Michael Thornton, mlthornton@kunaschools.org
Getting involved & providing feedback:
The Board of Trustees is supported in its work by an appointed Clerk.
The Clerk is Deann Greany.
Deann can be reached by email or by phone at 208-922-1000.
