Thank you for your interest in the Board of Education for Birmingham Public Schools. The primary role of the BOE is to oversee the annual budget, set school policies and work in partnership with the superintendent. Feedback and the voices of community members play an integral role in our work. 

The Board desires open and respectful dialogue with the community. Every regular meeting and study session agenda includes an opportunity for public comment. If a community member wishes to address the BOE, please attend the one of the scheduled board meetings and fill out a public comment request card or submit your questions/comments in writing to the Board of Education.
