The Tulsa area has over 25 public school districts, each with their own elected boards of education — the governing bodies for schools. These boards decide the future of your school district.
School boards are elected by citizens to help manage schools and evaluate the district’s superintendent. They hold public meetings where you can directly express your opinions on the topics discussed that day or on broader issues affecting all schools. But each district has slightly different rules for how you can address the board.
We’ve compiled when each Tulsa school board meets, where you can access agendas and how to speak at meetings below.
