Thank you your further clarification r.e. the administrative structure, Oleg! Yes, if the source unequivocally refers to an appointed body, then I agree that your translation is more appropriate :)

@ The Misha Спасибо большое за Ваши комментарии. Я Вам лично благодарна за уточнения.
У меня сейчас вот в чем проблема. Ряд клиентов «английского нахватался». Во многих случаях пытаются править перевод. Вариантов в итоге имею два 1 доказать истину, которая к сожалению, становится все меньше клиенту интересна. А согласиться с разумными доводами мешают «тараканы в голове», упорно шепчущие:-) клиенту о том, что будь у него время, не обратился бы он за переводом и сам бы без проблем сделал. Ведь есть же гугл -переводчик :-) :-) :-) , зачем кому-то платить. 2. Согласиться на какой-то средний вариант. Понимаю, что и клиент всегда прав :-), и качество перевода при этом страдать не должно...
В общем, поиск этой самой «золотой середины» полным ходом идет.
Доброго времени суток!

Board of Education vs. Department of Education What is the Board of Education?

The Board of Education serves as the governing body of the Cleveland Municipal School District. The Board, with the concurrence of the Mayor, appoints the Chief Executive Officer of the School District. Other Board responsibilities include setting School District policy, approving the School District budget, establishing School District goals and accountability standards, and promoting parent, family and community involvement in the schools. This is a unique governance structure, as all other school districts in Ohio elect members to their boards of education.

The New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) is the branch of municipal government in New York City that manages the city's public school system.

So, it's clear from the above that 'Board of Education' is an elected local governance body while 'Department of Education' is an appointed administrative body managing education-related affairs at municipal level.

The source unit refers to 'Department of Education'.

Education Department of the Municipal Entity Administration / Municipal Education Department

In Russia, under administrative division rules, there are Municipal Entities administered by Administrations subdivided into Departments.

If to translate a normative document this should be taken into account.

Municipal Board of Education

I'm pretty sure this is what you mean (without having more context to go on). Google gives 74000 results for this particular phrasing.

agree The Misha : Well, yes, if the goal is to translate into natural English "as she is spoke" rather than bureaucratic Runglish for internal consumption.
