District Five School Board Candidates Forums

The Lexington-Richland District Five Teacher Forum group will host two D5 School Board Candidate Forums to provide an opportunity to the public to understand school board candidate positions on matters that would impact the safety, group and prosperity of their family and community.

“Teacher Forum is looking forward to serving our community through these events. It is so important that all members of our community have an opportunity to gather and learn together about the vision these men and women have that want to serve and lead our district,” said Ali Hendrick, Chair of the Lexington-Richland District Five Teacher Forum. “The choices they make will impact us all. We hope our community will participate by submitting questions and joining us in person or virtually.”

The Forums will take place on Thursday, Oct. 1 at Irmo Middle School from 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and on Thursday, Oct. 22 at Spring Hill High School from 6:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. For those in attendance at the event, social distancing will be observed and masks will be required.

Candidates will randomly answer community generated questions that will be collected prior to the events via Google Form (http://bit.ly/d5candidateforum) and upon arrival at the event.

The candidate forum will also be available to view via Facebook Live on the Lexington-Richland District Five Teacher Forum Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/d5teacherforum.
