Do You Want To Run For Your Local School Board?

If you are interested in learning more about running for your local Board of Education, now is the time to act!

The Candidates' Guide from the Illinois Board of Elections is one place to start. If you have questions about what it takes to run for a School Board position, please e-mail berwyncares@yahoo.com. BerwynCARES is a 501c3 organization and does not endorse individual candidates, rather we encourage participation and would like to provide information to citizens interested in serving on the local school boards.

There are School Board seats up for election in April 2009 in all 3Berwyn School Districts (North Berwyn District 98, South Berwyn District 100 and Morton High School District 201). Board of Education members serve for 4 years. Although the election isn't until April, there are deadlines to follow to get your name on the ballot. Please e-mail berwyncares@yahoo.com for more information.
