The Loudoun County School Board is a nine-member board elected to serve four-year terms. One seat on the board is elected at-large, with the remaining eight seats elected by district. The seats of all nine incumbents were up for election on November 3, 2015.[3]

Algonkian District incumbent Debbie Rose, Broad Run District incumbent Kevin Kuesters and Dulles District incumbent Jeff Morse all faced one challenger each in their re-election bids. Rose and Morse retained their seats, while Kuesters lost to challenger Joy Maloney.

Fellow board member William Fox competed against two challengers, Tom Marshall and Nels Pearsall, in his bid to retain the Leesburg District seat. Marshall won the race, removing Fox from the board.

The race for the at-large seat featured newcomers Beth Huck and Stephan Knobloch, since board member Thomas Reed did not file for re-election. Huck won the open seat. Catoctin District incumbent Jennifer Bergel also did not file, which left her seat open to Eric DeKenipp and Dusty Sparrow Reed. DeKenipp securred that open seat. Incumbents Eric Hornberger, Jill Turgeon and Brenda Sheridan all ran unopposed and won re-election to the Ashburn District, Blue Ridge District and Sterling District seats, respectively.
