Two Gwinnett County school board seats will be decided Tuesday in election runoffs.

The elections could shift the balance of power in Georgia’s largest school district, where the five-member board has frequently been split on major issues.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution asked the four candidates in the two races several questions to get a better understanding of their positions on some of the important issues facing the school district and its roughly 180,000 students.
