A ranking, with its marginEach rank is a 90% range across 11 resampled meetings, so "2nd–4th" means the data can't place them more exactly. The ranges may widen as we name more of the speech.
Coverage: about 92% of members’ speaking time named (77%–93%)

Minutes = time we heard them speak per meeting, from the speech we have named so far, so each is a floor: at least that much.

What board members said

Did anybody look at the impact of the AI workforce reduction and the effect that has on college and the effect it has in high school in the sense of the real-world learning?Jesse AdamsBoard member · North Allegheny School District Board of School DirectorsWatch the full meeting from 17:12
