May 2024 School Board Election
Each year, Allen ISD holds an election to fill seats on the local School Board. Terms are for three years and Trustees serve at-large, meaning they do not represent a specific geographical area of the district. Terms are staggered so that only some of the seats expire each year.
This year’s Allen ISD Trustee election will be Saturday, May 4 for Places 1, 2 and 3.
