Summary

The board established candidacy filing dates for school-board elections from July 14 through July 28 at 5:00 p.m. and corrected the ballot seat count to four members to be elected.

Board members approved a resolution establishing the school-board candidacy filing period from July 14 to July 28 at 5:00 p.m.; candidates must come to the district office to pay the $2 filing fee and sign up for the ballot. During discussion members noted an inconsistency in the draft resolution text (it listed three seats); the board clarified that four seats will be on the November ballot and instructed staff to update the resolution accordingly.

The resolution passed on a motion and second; board members encouraged current members to consider re-election and invited interested community members to run. The corrected timeline and filing instructions will be posted at the district office and included in the board packet.
