Huntsville City School Board Election Guide

If you’re a parent with kids in the Huntsville City School system you probably already know there’s a BIG election coming up on August 26, 2014.
Just like in previous local elections that specifically affect families, Rocket City Mom has compiled a series of posts about each candidate running for Huntsville City School Board. We asked them to answer the same nine questions, and have run their responses each unedited and as they have sent them to us.
Click each candidate’s name below to read their replies to Rocket City Mom’s questions. Then do some of your own homework to find out what’s going on in your district! You can even meet the candidates in person at the Candidate Forum Event at Huntsville High School on August 18th.
We hope this helps busy parents discover more about the school leadership running for election in their district.
