SEMINAR PLANNED FOR BOARD OF EDUCATION CANDIDATES

SEMINAR PLANNED FOR BOARD OF EDUCATION CANDIDATES With Four County School Boards Association
Have you been thinking about running for your board of education or do you know someone who is?
Do you wonder how much time it takes? Do you want to know more about what a board member
does? The answers to these questions and more will be the subject of a “Virtual Seminar for
Prospective School Board Members” via Zoom on Saturday, March 1, 2025, 9:00 am to 11:00 am.
This year, all school board members will be elected on May 20th. Candidates for boards of education
must file their nominating petitions at least 30 days prior to the election (20 days for small cities).
This seminar will help potential school board candidates and the public-at-large understand the role
and responsibilities of school board service.
A school board candidate must be a U.S. citizen, at least 18 years old, able to read and write, a
district resident for one year prior to election, and not employed by the school district or related to a
current member of the board of education.
There is NO CHARGE for this seminar. Registration is required to receive a Zoom meeting link and
