Already on the board
Walk in already knowing.
Board service is a volunteer job with a professional workload. We keep the research current underneath you: your district's numbers, what your board has in front of it, and what is moving around your seat, so you are prepared for the meeting instead of chasing the district website the night before.
What we do for board members
Research that helps you do the job
Not a one-off document that goes stale in a month. We follow your district and your board through the cycle so you don't have to.
Know your district cold
Finances, enrollment trajectory, staffing, demographics, and how it compares to its neighbours and the state, kept up to date. The context you are expected to already have when a motion comes to the floor.
What's in front of you
Colleagues resign and get appointed, terms expire, seats open, agenda items come back around. We track what moves on your board and across your state and tell you when it matters.
A number before the meeting
A benchmark against peer districts, a read on a budget line, or the history behind an agenda item. Ask, and a researcher answers with the source attached.
Scope
What we track
Every line below comes out of records we hold and check ourselves, with the source kept against each one.
Your district
- /Revenue, expenditure, and long-term debt
- /Enrollment across multiple years, not just today
- /Child poverty rate and student demographics
- /Teacher, counselor, and psychologist staffing ratios
- /English-language-learner and special-education counts
- /Benchmarked against peer districts in your state
Your board
- /Every colleague, their seat, and their role
- /Terms and expiry where the district publishes them
- /Seats opening at the next election
- /Changes tracked as people resign or are appointed
- /Where your board's agendas and meeting video live
- /How your board is structured against others in the state
Your seat
- /Where your seat sits in the election cycle
- /Who has filed against it, and when they filed
- /Whether your race is contested or unopposed
- /The filing calendar and the dates that follow
- /How the seat has changed hands in the past
- /A source kept against every line of it
Agenda-level research: recurring topics, your own vote record, and public comment volume, is rolling out district by district. We tell you exactly where your district stands before you engage.
How it works
Three steps
Tell us your seat
District and seat is enough. We confirm what we already hold for your board before anything else happens.
We build the baseline
Your district, your board, and your seat, assembled and checked against the records the district itself publishes.
We keep it current
From then on it stays up to date, and you hear from us when something around your board actually changes. Stop whenever you like.
Get started
Tell us your seat
District and seat is enough. We take it from there, and you can stop any time.
