Time for another edition of: You Make The Call

Should school boards have the authority to fire superintendents? This school board in Maryland seeks precisely that. Only two school boards in that state currently may fire their school chiefs: Baltimore and Prince George's County.

Is the school board from Lewisville Independent School District the best in Texas? This organization thinks so. Read more about it here.

Should school board members be banned from disclosing any identifiable information about suspended or expelled students? That's the new law in Michigan, by the way. Check out this analysis from Brad Banasik, legal counsel of Michigan Association of School Boards.

Should school districts be audited more often? The New York State comptroller says yes.

Remember: All players of You Make the Call may respond to any or all of the above by quickly popping into our nifty reply form. Opinions, bloviations, and insults are accepted. Encouraged, even. The rulings of the judges are final. Thanks for playing.
