Paris native and 1988 North Lamar graduate Jimmy Fendley is in a race May 1 against three other candidates for one of two three-year positions on the North Lamar ISD board of trustees.
Other candidates include Teresa Bussell, Dr. Clint Spencer and Justin Wideman. The top two vote recipients will be named to positions currently held by Jeff Martin and Kristi Trammell, both of whom chose not to seek re-election.
âI worked there 17 years and my wife still works there,â said Fendley, who left the district in 2017 to join the business world. âThree kids graduated from there and one is still going there, a seventh grader. Blue and gold runs through my veins.â
