Board Records Search
Every West Orange Board of Education meeting, transcribed and searchable — plus agendas, minutes, budgets, policies, and other district documents. Find what was said, discussed, and decided — fast.
When the district's $13.5 million deficit became public, and the board voted to outsource paraprofessional positions in response, a lot of residents were left confused, not necessarily about what happened, but about how we got there. Meeting recordings and minutes exist, but piecing together a timeline from them takes hours most of us don't have.
So I built this archive. Every West Orange Board of Education meeting since 2021 has been transcribed and made searchable, alongside agendas, minutes, budgets, policies, and other district documents, so residents can trace the actual record for themselves instead of relying on secondhand summaries. Ask a question directly and get an answer grounded in the record, with citations back to the exact source.

Ask a question about board business
This searches meeting transcripts and district documents for relevant excerpts, then asks an AI assistant to answer using only what's in the record — with citations back to the exact source. Specific questions work best. Broader questions about patterns or trends are answered from a limited sample rather than the full archive, and are labeled as such.
