An ELEC official will tailor a presentation for anyone with an interest in possibly running for the Board of Education. They will show the forms you need to fill out and submit and walk us through how to submit online.

Running for an election should not be intimidating and we are here to help local candidates running to serve on the Board of Education. With new monetary limits, all potential candidates should know what those are if they are running individually or with others on a slate.
