TULSA, Okla. — The Tulsa Public Schools Board of Education held a special meeting Thursday to address agenda items that did not get approved during a regular meeting on Monday that ended after three board members left the meeting.

Crowds of people packed the board meeting room along with two overflow rooms with those watching the live stream of the meeting. The board started with votes on several action items, with applause from the crowd coming after some approvals.

The meeting paused a handful of times due to yelling or disruption coming from the public.
