The Buffalo-Hanover-Montrose School Board is made up of seven members. Positions on the Board are four-year terms with elections held on odd-numbered years. The district's superintendent and a student representative from the Buffalo High School Student Council also participate in board meetings but do not vote on action items.

The school board conducts a workshop meeting the second Monday of the month (except in July and December), and a regular meeting on the fourth Monday of the month (second Monday of the month in July and December). Workshop meetings rotate to each school for building presentations. Board meetings are conducted in the Discovery Center Board Room in Buffalo.
