The school election takes place on the second Tuesday in September of odd-numbered years. Each school election is used to elect citizens to the board to maintain a five (5) member board and to address questions that are submitted to the voters.
Citizens of the school district community seeking a seat on the board must file their nomination papers with the board secretary, or the board secretary's designee, between sixty-four and forty days before the school election unless otherwise directed.
If a vacancy occurs on the board, it may be filled in accordance with law and board policy.
It is the responsibility of the county commissioner of elections to conduct school elections.
