AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Starting in 2027, this bill moves local school board elections from even-numbered years — when state and federal races are on the ballot — to odd-numbered years, aligning them with municipal elections held each November. School board primary elections would shift to August of odd-numbered years, and candidates would file declarations of candidacy beginning June 1 of those years. To manage the transition, the bill extends the terms of currently serving school board members whose terms were set to end in 2027, 2029, or 2031 by one year each.
