By providing a nomination process months in advance of the election we can help find candidates very suited for this office who may have been lacking encouragement to run as well as getting to know the candidates in detail as the candidate pool grows.

An optional attestation section helps all parties (voters, nominees, and nominators) become more cognizant of the roles and responsibilities (a.k.a. job description) of the school board down to a granular level and thereby helps improves the quality of the nominations and eventual board members. Self-nominations are allowed.

Nominations are not binding on running for office and will be kept confidential.

Nominators and Nominees will be invited to join the group: Parents for Educational Excellence in Piedmont.
