School board candidate forum set for Tuesday

The Hot Springs County chapter of the Wyoming Education Association will be hosting a candidate’s forum featuring those running for school board.

The forum will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 23, starting at 6:30 p.m. in the Community Center behind the Community Church.

Moderator for the evening will be Elise Robillard, the NW Region UniServ Director of the Wyoming Education Association.

Candidate statements will be heard at 6:30 p.m., followed by an issues forum and a reception with drinks and light snacks where the public will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with the candidates.

There are six active candidates for the three open seats on the school board and all have been invited to attend. The purpose of the forum is to allow voters to meet the candidates and discern their positions on issues relevant to the learning and success of students in our district.
