SCHOOL BOARD RECOGNITION WEEK
Missourians
benefit every day from the dedicated energies and countless hours devoted by a group
of more than 3,600 men and women in every community across the state. These public servants are elected by local
constituents and do not receive compensation for their tireless efforts. These men and women are the local school
board members of Missouri.
During
the week of January 23-29, communities across the state honored the dedicated
service of local boards of education during School Board Recognition Week as
declared by Governor Jay Nixon. The
goal is to build awareness and understanding of the important function a board
of education plays in communities and schools.
All Missouri citizens are asked to recognize the important contributions
of these men and women and focus attention on the vital role school boards play
in the education of Missouri's children.

This
year we have had three candidates file for the three available positions on the
Adair County R-II School Board. Those
who have filed include incumbents Traci Hill and Curtis Gordon and Alissa
Treasure.
The
district will not hold an election since the number of candidates
who have filed for the Board is equal to the number of positions available.
