WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU VOTE

Election Day is May 3. Early voting runs April 22-29. The last day to register to vote in the MFISD election is April 3. Visit the Burnet County Elections Office webpage for more information. 

MFISD trustees serve staggered, three-year terms. Those elected in May will serve from 2025-28.

Trustees represent the residents of the Marble Falls school district in policy making, forming the district’s budget, approving or denying major developments and projects, and overseeing the work of the superintendent, who handles the district’s day-to-day operations.

The board usually meets on the third Monday of each month.
