Conselho do Distrito Escolar


Explanation:
Visto tratar-se de um texto que reflecte a realidade canadiana, parece-me interessante utilizar um termo que defina a realidade em concreto e não utilizar uma expressão que designa uma realidade distinta. Daí, apresentar esta sugestão.

Example sentence(s):
  • Os distritos escolares possuem um corpo legislativo, chamado de conselho escolar,
  • O conselho do pequeno distrito escolar de Harrold Independent aprovou de forma unânime
