As detailed in Board of Education Policy 2:30 School District Elections, School Board elections are held at the Consolidated General Election on the first Tuesday in April of each odd-numbered year. If that date conflicts with Passover, the election moves to the first Tuesday following the last day of Passover. The canvass of votes is conducted by the election authority within 21 days after the election.
