Voters in the City of Alexandria will see school board candidates on their ballots this fall for the first time in three years. Early voting started Sept. 17 and Election Day is Nov. 2.
The Alexandria City Public Schools Board has been tackling not only capital improvement and capacity issues, but navigating education through the pandemic.
The board has nine members who are elected by voters — three representatives from each of three school district zones (shown on the map below).
According to the school system's website, "The Alexandria City School Board is a nine-member elected body that adopts policy for the daily operation of schools and sees that school laws are properly explained, enforced, and observed. The City is divided into three voting districts, and three Board Members are elected from each district. Each member serves a three-year term. The School Board Chair receives $17,000 and Board Members receive $15,000 per year."
The following is the board's mission statement:
The Alexandria City School Board will ensure that ALL students reach their highest academic potential and that they are prepared for citizenship, higher education, and the workforce. To accomplish this goal, we will make policy, budget, and leadership decisions that are aligned with our Vision and Strategic Plan; and we will communicate with and involve stakeholders actively and transparently.
The following current School Board members are not running for reelection:
- Christopher A. Suarez (District A)
- Cindy M. Anderson (District B)
- Margaret Lorber (District B)
- Veronica R. Nolan (Vice Chair and District B)
- Ramee A. Gentry (District C)
