DeKalb County School Board Candidates up for election on (TUESDAY) May 20, 2014: A Review

Posted on May 13, 2014by dekalbschoolwatch

We have done our best to compile as much information as we can on the candidates seeking election to the school board on May 20. Remember, the two super districts no longer exist (which is why you see two incumbents in District 4), and all seven other seats are up for election to a 4 year term (beginning January 1, 2015). This is a critical juncture. Please review the candidates carefully and make an informed, thoughtful vote — for the future of the children of DeKalb.  Add your thoughts and experiences to the discussion following this post.
