Funding
Van opted for mini reporting in this election, according to the Washington Public Disclosure Commission.[2] Candidates who opted for this had to keep a record of their contributors and expenditures, but were not required to report them. If they raised and spent more than $5,000 in aggregate or received more than $500 from any one contributor, including themselves, they would have had to switch their filing status from mini to full reporting.[3]

Four of the five seats on the Highline Public Schools school board were up for by-district election on November 3, 2015. Three seats were up for general election: Districts 1, 4 and 5. One seat, District 3, was up for special election for a two-year unexpired term.
District 1 incumbent Tyrone Curry Sr., District 4 incumbent Bernie Dorsey, and District 5 incumbent Michael Spear won re-election to regular four-year terms. Curry and Dorsey won re-election unopposed. Spear faced challenger John Burdine.[4]
District 3 incumbent Susan Goding announced in February 2015 that she would resign from the board effective March 4, 2015. A member of the board since 2005, she decided to leave the board mid-term to focus on her statewide advocacy regarding math education.[5] The race for her vacated seat featured Joe Van and Miles Partman. Van was appointed to fill the District 3 vacancy until the election; Partman challenged Goding in her most recent re-election campaign in 2013. Van won the remaining two years of Goding's term on the board.[4]
