I definitely can't tell you who to vote for. I didn't even realize there was a school board race in Saint Louis on April 6th until last week, but I frantically did some research on the race and the candidates. If you too are just realizing there's a school board race perhaps this will help!
There are ten Candidates vying for three spots, no party affliations!
There are seven spots on the school board in total, but only three are up during this election. Only one incumbent is running, but two former members are running again.
This race matters more than ever since local control returned to SLPS's school board!
I watched the candidate forum put on by the League of Women Voters. I read the entries for each candidate on Vote411. I read the entries for each candidate on the SLPS Foundation website. I read (not in full) each candidates website (if they had one).
Small Disclaimer: Candidate responses to forum questions are paraphrased below. Additionally the other categories are based on the information I was able to find. If there are any mistakes my apologies!
