Columbia Board of Education candidates will field questions from teachers at a virtual forum Thursday hosted by the Columbia National Education Association.
The forum takes place from 6:30 to 8 p.m. The public is invited but must register to receive a link here.
Five candidates are seeking two board seats in the April 6 election: incumbent Teresa Maledy, Lucas Neal, Aron Saylor, Katherine Sasser and Jeanne Snodgrass. My decision to withdraw from the race was a difficult one to make because I really enjoy serving on the board of education. However, at this point in my life, I need to spend more time with my family, Blackburn said.
MISSOURI- Missouri s April general municipal election candidate filing ended on Jan. 19, right before Inauguration Day. The final certification day will be Tuesday, Jan. 26 and the special election will be held April 6.
Three candidates are running for the Columbia City Council Second Ward seat, and three are running for the Sixth Ward seat. The Second Ward covers much of north-central and northwest Columbia, with Six Ward covering much of east-central and southeast Columbia.Â
Five people announced their candidacies for two open seats in the Columbia Public School School Board, which is a three year term. One seat opened last minute, as Board Vice President Susan Blackburn dropped out of the race Tuesday evening.Â
