Wrap: St. Louis city school board members must have an interest in its success, says state Senator Jamilah Nasheed.

Actuality:  NASHEED5.WAV
Run Time: 00:08
Description: We need to have board members with skin in the game. What I mean by that; they should have children within the St. Louis public school system.

The transition board president urged parents of city students to run for three vacant school board seats.

Nasheed's comments followed the state board of education giving full accreditation to St. Louis City schools this morning.
