Election dates and frequency

See also: Rules governing school board election dates and timing

Most county boards of education have elections in odd-numbered years either every two years or every four years. As of 2022, elections in all but one county — Arlington County — were off-cycle from federal elections. They are held at the same time as the state's odd-year state legislative and gubernatorial elections. There are 91 county school districts in Virginia. The Arlington County School Board holds elections every year.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 15.2

The elections for most city and town school boards are held during even-numbered years and are on-cycle with federal elections. There are several cities that hold school board elections in odd-numbered years or annually. Details of city and town school board elections are largely set in local charters. There are 41 municipal school districts in Virginia.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1-57.3

Election system

School board members in Virginia are elected through nonpartisan general elections without primaries.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education and Section 24.1. Elections

Party labels on the ballot

See also: Rules governing party labels in school board elections

School board elections in Virginia are nonpartisan, which means party labels do not appear on the ballot for school board candidates. Virginia state law requires that school board candidates qualify for the ballot through the petition process for independent candidates. It does not allow school board candidates to qualify for the ballot as party nominees. This means that all school board candidates in Virginia are listed as independent in the secretary of state's official candidate list. On the ballot, the names of candidates are displayed without any party affiliation or additional disclosure of any kind. There is no route in state law for a school board candidate to be listed on the ballot with a party affiliation.

See law: Virginia Statutes Sections 22.1. Education and 24.1. Elections

Winning an election

School board candidates that receive the largest number of votes in the nonpartisan general election are elected to office.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education and Section 24.1. Elections

Term length and staggering

The length of school board member terms depends on the terms of the members of the relevant county, city, or town governing body. As of 2022, most school districts (121 or 91.7%) had 4-year school board terms. Ten school districts had 3-year board member terms.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education and Section 24.1. Elections

School board seat elections are either not staggered or staggered in a way that depends on the organization of the district and the relevant county, city, or town prior to the referendum establishing elected board members; special act; or local charter. State law has special provisions concerning the staggering of school board elections in Bath, Loudoun, Pittsylvania, Pulaski, and Rockbridge Counties.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education and Section 24.1. Elections

Representation: at large vs. by sub-district

School members are elected at large, from sub-districts, or through a combination of the two.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education and Section 24.1. Elections

Filing deadlines and swearing-in dates

School board candidates must file declarations of candidacy by 7:00 pm on the third Tuesday in June.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 24.1. Elections

School board candidates cannot circulate nominating petitions until after the first day of January of the year of the election.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 24.1. Elections

Newly elected school board members officially take office on the first day of January following their election.

See law: Virginia Statutes Section 22.1. Education

Academic performance

Each year, state and local education agencies use tests and other standards to assess student proficiency. Although the data below was published by the U.S. Department of Education, proficiency measurements are established by the states. As a result, proficiency levels are not comparable between different states and year-over-year proficiency levels within a district may not be comparable because states may change their proficiency measurements. To protect student privacy, percentages are reported as ranges for groups of 300 students or fewer. If five or fewer students were included in a data set, the data will display as "PS."^[2]

The following table shows the percentage of district students who scored at or above the proficiency level each school year:
