Metcalf launches write-in bid for school board seat

Lindsay Metcalf, Concordia, has announced she is running a write-in campaign for the District 1, Position 1 seat on the Unified School District 333 board of education.
The District 1, Position 1 seat is currently held by Bryan Bombardier. He did not file for re-election.
No one filed to run for the seat prior to the June 1 deadline.
As a write-in candidate, Metcalf's name will not appear on the ballot for the November 7 election.
Voters do have an option to write in a name for each position up for election.
“As the parent of two junior high students and as a Concordia High School Class of 2000 graduate, I'm proud of the progress we have made as a district with the recent reopening of the middle school. I want to see that progress continue with similar-scale renovations at the high school and junior high. With two students in that building, it's never been more clear to me that renovations are imperative. I believe we must keep academics the focus while being responsible stewards of taxpayer money,” Metcalf said in a statement on her campaign website.
