Meet Your School Board Here to serve you: Members of the Ankeny Board of Education are elected at large for three-year terms, during which they receive no pay for their services. The Board of Education follows a governance model. In this process, the Board gives direction to the school district as to their priorities and goals, and the administration then develops the best procedures and practices to fulfill those goals.

Pat previously served on the Ankeny Board of Education for 12 years from 1993 to 2005.
