School Board
The Tulsa School Board has seven members, each representing a different geographic area of the district. Each board member is elected to a four year term, and the terms of each member are staggered so every year at least one member is up for election. The school board establishes policies, manages the budget, hires the superintendent, and is the final appeals board for the district. The school board's authority is limited to official meetings.
