Meet the Candidates of the Local School Board Election
With the midterm elections fast approaching on Nov. 8, many overlook a smaller yet no less important election for the Carlsbad Unified school board.
The school board is a five-member council that represents the Carlsbad community and sets performance goals for both schools and superintendents. Three of the five posts are up for reelection this year, including Areas One, Four, and Five.
When voting for any position, it is important to stay informed of who the candidates are to see if they best represent the varying ideas and opinions within Carlsbad’s diverse community. The Sage conducted interviews with each of the six candidates for the school board to learn more about their respective worldviews and philosophies.
