Trustees represent the residents of the Llano school district in policy making, forming the district’s budget, approving or denying major development and projects, and overseeing the work of the superintendent, who handles the district’s day-to-day operations.
Trustees serve staggered, three-year terms. Those elected in 2025 will serve until their seat is up for election again in 2028.
The board usually meets on the fourth Monday of each month.
