Elections
2017
Three seats on the Inglewood Unified School District Advisory Board of Education were up for election on April 4, 2017. Seat 1 incumbent Margaret Richards-Bowers did not file to run for re-election, leaving the seat open for a newcomer. Dionne Young Faulk and Odest Riley Jr. ran for that seat, and Faulk won. In their bids for re-election, Seat 2 incumbent Carliss McGhee and Seat 3 incumbent Melody O. Ngaue-Tuuholoaki ran unopposed and won additional terms on the board.[1][2]
The school board election was held at large, but candidates ran for specific seats. Seats were not tied to a specific jurisdiction. All registered voters in the school district could vote for all the seats on the ballot, and candidates could run for any seat on the ballot, no matter where they lived.[3]

Funding
At the time of this election, the Los Angeles Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk did not publish school board candidate campaign finance reports online. Ballotpedia staffers requested this information, but the only free method of viewing the files was at their office.
The Los Angeles Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk targeted the end of 2018 to make school board candidate campaign finance reports available online for free. From that point forward, Ballotpedia began including campaign finance data for Los Angeles County school board candidates.[4][5][6]
