Hello, Mary K, and welcome to the Grammar Exchange.

If the singular is Board of Commissioners, that is, a board formed by several members, the plural is Boards of Commissioners, that is, more than one board each formed by several members.

The same happens with, for example, Board of Directors, the plural of which is Boards of Directors.
