Do Some states require that local elections must come during the in-between years when no national elections are held?
Yes, some states do require that local elections must be held in the in-between years when no national elections take place. This is done to separate local elections from the more prominent and highly contested national elections, allowing local issues to receive more attention and ensuring that local officials are elected with a focus on local concerns. However, this requirement varies from state to state, and not all states have such a provision.

It's important to check the voting regulations in your area to know for sure.
How many elections are there in the US every 24 years?
There are many elections within 24 years, often several per year. There are 12 national elections in 24 years, in the even-numbered years. In 6 of the 12 years, in years evenly divisible by 4, the President and Vice President are elected. In all 12 of the even-numbered years in any 24-year period, every seat in the House of Representatives and one third of the seats in the Senate come up for election. Senators and Representatives are directly elected by voters on the day after the first Monday of November. The President and Vice President are elected indirectly, with the voters of each state casting votes on the day after the first Monday of November for the pair of presidential and vice presidential candidates they prefer. Based on those votes, electors who pledge to vote for the most popular candidates in the state (or district in the case of D.C. or congressional district in the case of all but two electors in each of Maine and Nebraska) are appointed to cast their state's votes for President and Vice President on the Monday after the second Wednesday of December. Elections for state offices, including Gubernatorial elections (elections for state governor and, if the state has one, Lieutenant Governor) and elections for state senators and legislators are also usually held on the day after the first Monday of November. Each state determines for itself in which years it's state offices come up for election and how long the terms are. Earlier in the national election years, primaries and caucuses are held to determine who will be the candidate chosen by each political party for each office. This is true also for elections for state offices. Counties, cities, towns, townships, boroughs, villages, public school boards etc. also hold elections periodically for their elected officials, including Mayors, Sheriffs, City Council Members, Judges, Tax Collectors, Attorneys General, Constables, et al. These elections can be scheduled for any day of the year as each state sees fit.
Is the school board an executive branch of government?
No, it is a state branch. The city decides how it will district it's local public schools, and then elections are held in each school district for voters to elect who will be on the school board. The local school boards then report to their state's department of education, and the state's department reports to the Department of Education in Washington, D.C. Though it may seem like it's a branch of the federal government, it's only the federal funding that come from D.C. It is up to the state's to determine their standards and handles where the federal funding and state funding will go. This is why there is no national standard of education, only the No Child Left Behind act that determines the amount of federal funding given out.
