That sounds like a resignation letter!

It should be accepted and the vacancy filled.

Could be wrong, but a lot of school board slots are unpaid. The job is largely thankless. Right now there are a lot of threats of parents who are furious about masks going to replace the school board members, but they are often single issue people who have no intention of actually sitting through four years of meetings and all of the thankless work that goes along with it.

Some school districts, probably nearly all school districts across America to be fair, have existed on autopilot for decades with only sporadic community involvement. Community members have similarly been on autopilot, expecting that the school's operations are someone else's business. I hope from all of this that the dynamic changes for the better.

What's commonly known as apathy. Citizens essentially abdicated their oversight, ceding not just school boards but many community institutions over to belligerent radicals over the years, figuring it was for 'someone else' to deal with. Now there's been an awakening that THEY are that "someone else". The radical losers are now scrambling for defense since suddenly there is pushback and calls for accountability that they are not used to dealing with. The reactions have been rather enlightening I'd say.
