OAKLYN SCHOOL BOARD CANDIDACY INFORMATION AVAILABLE
The Oaklyn Board of Education will have four vacancies in the April 20th Annual School Election, three full-term positions (a full term on the school board runs for three years) and one unexpired term of one year.
Candidates must file a nominating petition with the local school board in order to get their name on the ballot for the Annual School Election. The current deadline to submit the nominating petition is 4 p.m., Monday, March 1, 2010. The election is scheduled for Tuesday, April 20, 2010. A change in the Annual School Election date and candidacy deadline has been proposed in the Legislature. The New Jersey School Boards Association will notify local school districts of such a change, if enacted.
Prospective school board candidates can obtain a “School Board Candidate Kit” online at www.njsba.org. Published by the New Jersey School Boards Association, the School Board Candidate Kit includes a nominating petition, information about legal qualifications for school board candidacy and the role of the school board member. Information about the New Jersey School Ethics Act and important dates in the school election process are also included in the kit.
“One of the most meaningful contributions that a citizen can make to their community is serving on their local board of education,” said Harry J. Delgado, NJSBA president. “I encourage all interested citizens to consider school board membership. It doesn’t require a degree in education, or a background in politics. However, it does require a sincere interest in the community, its children, and their education.”
