Policy Solutions: We Need a School Board Election Holiday
Jonathan E. Collins
Phi Delta Kappan, v105 n6 p60-61 Mar 2024
Voter turnout for school board elections is historically low, with tiny percentages deciding who governs schools. Columnist Jonathan E. Collins proposes a new federal holiday, School Board Election Day, to increase voter turnout and public involvement and interest in public schools. School board elections would be held on the same day nationally, and voters would be encouraged to visit schools not only to vote but to participate in forums and projects to benefit schools.
