The St. James / St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Total Board of Education is an advisory body operating under the concept of shared leadership in responding to the mission of faith formation.  The board forms a collaborative community that includes parents, pastors, the Director of Religious Education and the school principal.  The board is responsible for consultation and advisement on all education programs, including: school, Parish Religious Education, Adult Education, parish athletics and the Home & School Association.  It agrees to follow the policies and administrative procedures of the Archdiocese of Omaha and the Office of Catholic Schools.

Members selected from St. James and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parishes are asked to use their talents, gifts and insights for the common good of the community to promote the mission and goals of Catholic education while meeting students’ educational needs. Members are appointed by the pastors for a three-year term.  The board meets on the third Tuesday of the month and alternates its meetings between the two parishes.
