Arlington ISD School Board Candidates

Three Arlington school board seats will be decided at the Saturday, May 9 election. All three incumbents have challengers. It is crucial that Start School Later-Arlington supporters assess all six candidates thoroughly. Place 1: Polly Walton and Gloria Pena (i) Place 2: Kristen Hudson and Peter Baron (i) Place 3: Dr. Maryhelen Bronson and Dr. Aaron Reich (i) We need school board members that not only support healthy school hours for our adolescents, but are also willing to provide leadership to insure a change in the high school bell schedule occurs. Four upcoming candidate forums provide an excellent opportunity to assess the six school board candidates up close and ask questions. I would encourage you to attend at least one of them.
