Summary

The bill would make every public school board seat in Mississippi an elected position with a four‑year term. Local boards could decide whether elections line up with the statewide general election in 2027 or the presidential election in 2028, and whether members are chosen from single‑member districts or at‑large. It also standardizes nomination petitions, vacancy procedures, and adds a recall process.
