BoardDocs


The District 401 Board of Education uses BoardDocs as its preferred method of sharing, managing and storing its online documents.

BoardDocs is a cloud-based service that provides efficient public access to meeting agendas and minutes. It also serves as a portal to the District's Policy Manual.

In addition, BoardDocs provides a secure login area for Board members and District staff.
