Bronfeld and Stankiewicz are seeking re-election, but Hare could not be reached for comment.
Candidates for school board must be at least 18 years old, be able to read and write, and hold U.S. citizenship. They must have lived in the school district for at least one year, and be registered to vote.
Candidates may not have an interest in any contract or hold a claim against the school board.
