Five school board seats will be up for election in 2017. School board President, Jeremy Putorti resigned in March, making a four-year seat available. Two other current members, James Brooks and Samantha Kingsley, will have their terms end this year. Those seats are three-year terms. Two two-year terms will also be up for a vote as Anthony Scrimo passed away and Any Austin resigned in 2016. Petitions of those seeking these seats must be returned to the district clerk by April 17th no later than 5:00 pm.
I will be covering these contests and will be sending out questionnaires to all those who enter the race. Stay tuned.
