Elections
2014
Elizabeth Mercado defeated fellow challengers Wendy Rodriguez, Michael Sgroi, George Talley and Timothy Wilson for Seat 1 in the general election on May 20, 2014. Mercado and Helen Moss ran as a slate for the two open seats.[1]
All members were elected to three-year terms by specific geographic districts that are aligned with the district's elementary school attendance areas. These seats do not have titles, but they are considered distinct from one another. Ballotpedia assigned generic titles to all seven seats on the board to prevent confusion. These seat titles are arbitrary and do not reflect the status or seniority of the board members holding them.
