Voters in the Basehor-Linwood School District won’t have any choices to make in the April general election. Three candidates — including two incumbents — filed for three open seats.
The incumbents are Shelley Stevens and Richard J. Zamora Jr., and the newcomer is Spencer A. Fritz.
School board members are citizens who volunteer without pay to determine the policies the superintendent uses to administer the district. The superintendent works for them, and they are responsible for tasks such as long-range planning, establishing the salaries and benefits of certified teachers, approving the annual budget and calling elections for tax levies and bond proposals.
Sample ballots are available on the Leavenworth County website.
Elections will take place Tuesday, April 2, on both sides of the state line in the Kansas City metropolitan area.
