SBCCD Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees of the San Bernardino Community College District is the governing body of the District. The Board is established by, and derives its power and duties from, the Constitution of the State of California and the Statutes of California as adopted by the Legislature and issued in the California Education Code, and the directives of the Board of Governors, California Community Colleges, listed in Title V, California Code of Regulations.

Seven trustees, elected from your communities, and two student representatives elected by their respective campuses govern the San Bernardino Community College District. Trustees serve a four-year term, while the non-voting student trustees serve a one-year term.

All regular and special meetings of the Board, except as otherwise required or permitted by law, are open to the public so that citizens may have the benefit of Board deliberations concerning items under consideration. A list of upcoming Board meetings are listed at www.sbccd.edu 
 

Election Information 

The San Bernardino Community College District, which operates Crafton Hills College, San Bernardino Valley College, EDCT, and KVCR, is governed by a Seven-member Board of Trustees that is elected by the community.

Elections are held bi-annually in even-number years in November and appear on the San Bernardino County general election ballot. A special election to fill the remaining term of Trustee Area 5 will be consolidated with the Nov. 5, 2024, general election and appear on the same ballot.

The district is divided into seven trustee areas, with each trustee representing an area of roughly equal population. The trustee areas, current board members, and next election are summarized here:

Based on 2020 U.S. Census data, 765,547 people live within SBCCD's service area. Since the last decennial census, the district grew by 52,054 residents or 7.3%. This change is slightly greater than the state population change of 6.1%. 

At their January 2022 meeting, the SBCCD Board of Trustees approved new trustee boundaries to keep each area nearly equal in population while considering topography, geography, the cohesiveness of territory, and communities of interest.
