Abstract

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.

政策解决方案：我们需要一个校董会选举假期

校董会选举的选民投票率历来很低，只有极少数人决定由谁管理学校。专栏作家乔纳森-柯林斯（Jonathan E. Collins）建议设立一个新的联邦假日--"校董会选举日"，以提高投票率和公众对公立学校的参与度和兴趣。全国将在同一天举行校董会选举，鼓励选民不仅到学校投票，而且参加有益于学校的论坛和项目。
