Summary

The June 2000 school-board election had two open seats but only one remaining candidate on the ballot, Bev Russell, so voters could write in a candidate. Judy Lanier withdrew from the school-board race to run for Peaine Township trustee, citing concerns about serving on more than one tax-levying board.
