Seven vie for seats on school board

Seven community members have stepped up to seek seats on the Sisters School Board in the May 19 election.

Lachlan Leaver and Greg Zadow will contest Position No. 2. Jeff Smith is running unopposed for Position No. 3. Three candidates will vie for Position No. 4: Stephen King, who currently holds the position by appointment; Karen Swaner, and Steve Mathews. Amanda Clark is running unopposed for Position No. 5.

An unusual number of seats are up for election in May due to the resignations of Kay Grady and Justin Durham who both left the board due to other commitments. Melvin Herburger and Andrew Gorayeb did not seek reelection.
