Candidates Needed for Board of Education –
Petition Deadline: Monday, April
22
The Board of Education would like to share the following message with our community. “We are less than two weeks from the April 22 deadline for candidates for the Board of Education to file their petitions with District Clerk Michele Reickert in the District Office.
Three of the nine seats
on the Board are up for election this year. It is likely that two of the three
current Board members up for election will not be running for re-election. Thus,
there are at least two openings on the Board for new candidates.
While anyone
who resides in the district over the age of 18 who has an interest in shaping
our present and future is strongly encouraged to become a candidate, it would
seem especially valuable experience for residents who currently have children in
the district – especially younger children - to do so.
This is an era of great
change in public education. This district has historically been among the most
innovative in the state in dealing with change. Our school needs the committed
involvement of the entire community at this time.
Please consider being a part
of this great undertaking. A copy of the petition is attached. If you have any
questions, please talk to Superintendent Horan or any Board Member. Thank
you."
