Committee Seeks Nominees for Board of Education

Following the recent School Board Nominating Committee election, returning and new SBNC members have begun to identify potential candidates to serve on next school year's Scarsdale Board of Education. Over the next few weeks, members of the SBNC will recruit and vet candidates to fill the two seats currently held by current board president Mary Beth Gose and trustee Lewis Leone, Jr., who are both completing their second term and ineligible for re-nomination.. At the end of the SBNC season, the voting members will nominate two individuals to the nonpartisan slate in the school board election held in May at the same time and place as the school budget vote.

All Scarsdale School District residents are welcome and encouraged to submit and propose names of qualified individuals to serve as trustees of the Scarsdale School District. A candidate must be at least 18 years old, a U.S. citizen, a qualified voter, and a resident of the Scarsdale School District for at least one year prior to the May 19, 2015 school board election date.

Candidates should complete a biographical information form and submit it via email to the SBNC Chair, Diane Baylor, at sbncchair@gmail.com as soon as possible. Forms for both PC and Mac users are available at www.scarsdalesbnc.com.

For more information on the SBNC, including the governing Resolution, information on the non-partisan system, and a list of the current SBNC members, please visit the SBNC website or contact the SBNC Chair.
