The board finalized its 2026 committee structure, distributing members across several standing committees including Budget/Finance, Policy, and Facilities. These assignments are crucial because they determine which board members will dive deeper into specific areas of school district operations and report back to the full board.

In addition to the main committees, board members were assigned as liaisons to important advisory councils, including the American Indian Parent Advisory Council and the Special Education Advisory Council. These liaison roles serve as bridges between the school district and community groups that advise the board on issues affecting specific student populations.

The board also designated Deb Pauly as the district's point of contact with the SW Metro Intermediate District, an organization that provides services and support to the Jordan School District. Corinne Hennen was named as an alternate for this role.

The committee assignments reflect how school boards organize their work. Rather than having all board members weigh in on every decision, committees allow smaller groups to study issues in depth—from budget proposals to facility maintenance—before presenting recommendations to the full board. The liaison assignments ensure that the board stays connected to the voices of families and communities it serves, particularly those representing students with special needs and Native American families.
