Four out of the district’s seven at-large seats were for election. Seven candidates ran in the elections, including Karen Yoho, an incumbent. The seven candidates divided themselves into two slates—the Students First Slate and the Education Not Indoctrination (ENI) slate.[1][2] The Students First Slate, which includes Yoho, Ysela Bravo, Rae Gallagher, and Dean Rose, says it is committed to “Safe, welcoming schools for all,” a “Diverse, well-trained staff,” and “Family & community involvement.” The ENI slate, which includes Olivia Angolia, Nancy Allen, and Cindy Rose, says it is running to “ensure that feelings don’t define truth, that academically-sound curricula are adopted, that decision-making is transparent, and that parents are respected.” The Frederick County Teachers Association (FCTA) endorsed the Students First slate, while the 1776 Project PAC endorsed the ENI.[3]

As of the 2020-2021 school year, Frederick County Public Schools had 43,828 students, 2,693 teachers, and 68 schools.
