Why We're Building This
Governance
Policy
Budget

Great governance ideas already exist — they just haven't met yet.

Across the country, board members are solving the same hard problems — budget oversight, superintendent evaluation, policy design, public engagement — and finding approaches that work. But those solutions stay locked inside individual districts.
SchoolBoardHQ connects those dots. A place where solutions travel between districts, where experienced members help newer ones get up to speed, and where proven governance practices spread.
Your peers are already here. Come find them.

Research Before Product

Built on what board members actually say they need.

Rather than assuming what boards need, SchoolBoardHQ is informed by peer-reviewed governance research and shaped by direct conversations with board members across the country.
  • Research
  • Discovery Interviews
  • National Surveys
  • Feature Validation
  • Washington State Beta
    Current Phase
  • Pilot Programs
  • Public Launch
Current Phase
SchoolBoardHQ is in active beta in Washington. Verified Washington school board members can request access today — every other state stays on the waitlist until we expand access state by state.
Built Around Trust

Governance depends on trust. So does SchoolBoardHQ.

    Privacy controls
    Members control their own visibility and what they share, with privacy defaults that protect sensitive professional conversations.
