The  Bulloch County Board of Education is the governing body of the Bulloch County School System, known as Bulloch County Schools. Bulloch County Schools is the local education agency for public education in Bulloch County for Kindergarten through Grade 12.

The primary role of the elected Board of Education is to do the following:

• Legislate school system policies, which are carried out under the direction of the superintendent of schools.
• Operate under a Code of Ethics.
• Conduct meetings in accordance with Georgia's Open Records Act. There are different types of meetings:
  • Regular & Work Session Board Meetings - The Bulloch County Board of Education meets twice each month, usually on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month.  The official annual schedule of meetings is adopted by the Board each January during its annual Organizational Meeting. Once adopted, by law the Board may only change one Regular Session date for the year. Work Session meetings may be changed or cancelled at will. All meetings start at 6:30 p.m. unless otherwise announced. Regular session, work session and special session meetings will be held in the boardroom of the Central Office located at 150 Williams Road, in Statesboro, unless otherwise announced. Meeting dates, times, and places are subject to change with advanced notice. The Board meeting dates for the year are published annually on this website, the Bulloch County Guide, the Bulloch County Schools Student Handbook, and for two weeks in January in the county's legal organ, The Statesboro Herald, immediately following the Board's annual Organizational Meeting. Citizens and the media may request to be added to an e-mail list to receive meeting notifications. To be added to this list, please contact the Board's secretary at 912.212-8505.
  • Special Board Meetings (Called Meetings.) - Special Board meetings may be called in accordance with the requirements of state law by the Board chairman on the request of three or more Board members or on the request of the Superintendent. Notice of all special meetings is given to the members of the Board at least 24 hours prior to the time stated for the meeting to convene. The notice will also indicate the purpose of the special meeting. It is the policy of the Board to announce in advance, whenever practical, through the newspapers,district website, social media and such other means as may appear appropriate, the date, time, and place of all special meetings and the major topic(s) to be discussed.
  • Public Hearings
  • Collaboration Sessions - To mirror the district faculty's use of professional learning communities for collaboration and planning, the Board may meet once a month in small, non-quorum groups of three to four to talk about potential items to place on Board meeting agendas. The Board does not conduct official business at these sessions. No policy or public matters of the Board are formulated, presented, discussed, or voted upon. No action is taken and the sessions are in a public place at either a school or local restaurant.
  • Disciplinary Hearings for Employees or Students
