Vacancy on RKUESD Board of Trustees


The purpose of this post is to let everyone know that we presently have an open seat on the Raymond-Knowles Union Elementary School District Board of Trustees.  There were two seats that were available for the upcoming election in November.  Only one of those board seats will continue to be filled by an incumbent, Heather Abrahams.  For the other seat, there weren’t any submissions completed with the Madera County Clerk’s office.  In accordance with Education Code Section 5091, the Raymond-Knowles U.E.S.D. will appoint a representative to fill the vacancy.  In order to be considered for appointment to the board, a candidate must: 1) Submit a letter of intent; 2) Submit proof of residence in the district; and 3) Be a registered voter at least 18 years of age.  Applications must be submitted to the district office by 3:00 P.M. on October 2nd

The board will interview and appoint the new member at their October board meeting, which will be held on October 9th.  The community will have several opportunities to speak at this meeting.  Your input is highly encouraged throughout this process. 

If you or someone you know is interested in taking this position of great responsibility, please feel free to contact me in the office for additional information or to answer any questions you might have.
