The Atlanta Board of Education announced Wednesday it has postponed its monthly meeting, which was previously scheduled for Monday, the day before school board elections.

The school board meeting will instead be held Nov. 11, a week after voters pick from 26 candidates running for nine seats.

Five school board members are seeking re-election: Byron Amos, Courtney English, Reuben McDaniel, Nancy Meister and Brenda Muhammad.
