School Board

The St. Isidore School Board is an advisory board consisting of nine parishioners, the principal, and the pastor. The board helps form policies, which give direction to the programs in the school within the guidelines and regulations, established by the Joliet Diocesan Schools Office and the Joliet Diocesan School Board. School Board members serve a three year term which allows for 3 new members annually.
