UNDATED, Miss. (WCBI)-It’s received a lot of debate in Jackson. But, in a surprise move, state Senators will continue to allow school districts to elect their board members.

The bill establishing the task force now goes to the house for a final decision.

Most school districts in Mississippi have an appointed school board.
