Teresa Binkley, Previous School Board Member (2022-2025) for the Brookings School District
This individual has served on the Brookings School Board for the past three years and provided outstanding leadership for the Board and the District during that time. Teresa Binkley was an insightful leader who always researched issues facing the district thoroughly. Teresa attended seminars and conferences to increase her understanding of Board policies and procedures, and she passed this knowledge onto all Board members. Teresa served on the policy committee and the finance committee, as well as serving as Vice-chair and Chair of the Board. She assisted in developing and strengthening community partnerships, as well as volunteered every week at Dakota Prairie Elementary throughout the school year. As Board Chair, she worked to maintain board collegiality and kept all board members informed. For her dedication to the students and staff in our district, as well as service to the district as a School Board member and Board Chair, we want to recognize Teresa Binkley with the B.E.S.T.
