The Board of Education of Charles County is composed of seven members elected to represent and serve the educational needs and interests of Charles County. They provide direction for and establish educational policy governing Charles County Public Schools. Board Members also have final authority over budgets, curriculum, personnel appointments, capital improvements and land acquisition. Board Members are elected at-large by the county's voting residents. They each serve four-year terms on a staggered basis. The Student Board Member serves a one-year term with the Board, representing student viewpoints and casting an opinion vote on most actions taken by the Board. Board Members appoint the Superintendent of Schools to manage the day-to-day operations of the school system. The Superintendent also serves as secretary-treasurer and is a nonvoting Board member.[ Last Updated: 03-May-2005 | Hits: 4969 | Reader Comments Report Problem

Nanjemoy Creek Environmental Education Center, a school site within the Charles County Public School System, is located on 10 acres along Nanjemoy Creek, a tributary of the Potomac River. Thanks to a generous land-lease agreement with Mr. Calvert Posey of Nanjemoy, Charles County Public Schools has been able to incorporate environmental education into its curriculum at a beautiful site which contains many diverse habitats and plenty of opportunities to experience nature first hand. Our nature trails meander through a tidal marsh, upland woods, fields and river shoreline. The creek offers beds of submerged aquatic vegetation and open waters where students can watch osprey, bald eagles, great-blue herons and many species of waterfowl. NCEEC offers students the opportunity to experience the richness of forest, coastal, meadow and wetland habitats and to explore their own connections to the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay.[ Last Updated: 28-Aug-2015 | Hits: 411 | Reader Comments Report Problem
