The survey grouped school boards into three categories based on student population: More than 15,000 students; 2,501 to 15,000 students; and 2,500 or fewer students. Survey questions and criteria centered on school boards' online presence, technology applications that allow the public to interact with school board members, access to information such as school board calendars, policies and agendas, and technology advancements in the school board chambers.
