Blue Valley Board of Education members live within their individual districts and are elected by a voting plan whereby six members live in geographic member districts and one runs at large. In a primary election, only residents from the geographic member district vote for the candidates. In all general elections, all residents vote for all candidates. This method reinforces the district's belief that all members represent all children in Blue Valley.
