school board meetings
District policy sessions
School board meetings are gatherings where elected or appointed members of a local education authority conduct official business—approving budgets, setting policies, hiring superintendents, and addressing curriculum controversies.
These meetings are typically open to the public and include time for community comment, which can become contentious over issues like book bans or mask mandates: The school board meeting devolved into shouting over the new reading list.
