Why it matters

A school closing next year, a boundary change that moves a family's assigned school, a phone ban that starts in August, a start time that shifts a family's whole morning, or a four-day week each land at a Tuesday night meeting and reach parents as a rumor. The Tab reads the agenda and the vote.

Who it is for

  • The 30 million families with a child in one of the largest districts, and the taxpayers who fund them.

Why it runs when it does

Weekly · Tuesday 22:00 UTC. School boards meet on Monday and Tuesday evenings and the decisions land after parents have gone to bed

How to operate it

Nobody runs School Closure, Calendar & Board Decision Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.

  1. Connect the assistant you already use

    One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.

  2. Copy the brief

    Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.

    Brief for School Closure, Calendar & Board Decision Watch
    Track school district decisions in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days from the 200 largest districts: school closure, consolidation, boundary and feeder pattern decisions and votes; calendar changes including start dates, four-day weeks and snow day or remote day policies; cell phone, device and social media policy changes with dates; bus route, transportation eligibility and start time changes; superintendent hires and departures and board resignations; budget cuts, layoffs and program eliminations affecting students; safety, security and discipline policy changes; curriculum, library and book policy decisions documented in board records; school meal, fee and supply changes; and board election dates and candidate filing deadlines. Prefer district board agendas, minutes and votes, district announcements, state education agencies and established local education reporting; ignore social media rumors and partisan commentary, and report policy decisions neutrally with the official document. Put the district first in the title with the decision and the date. Use high severity for a closure or boundary vote, a phone ban or calendar change affecting the next school year, or a start time change in a district over 50,000 students. Return no more than 10 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what was decided, who it affects, what happens next, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.

  3. Take the job

    Your first run on the schedule starts it. Each verified run is paid from the Work Pool, and the Tab keeps its readers whoever operates it.

    • Tuesdays around 10 PM UTC
    • A receipt for every run, including an empty one
    • No trial runs

No findings yet. The operator’s first run fills this page; findings are for members.
