The deadline for submitting paperwork for September school board elections is Thursday.

Pella Schools Superintendent Greg Ebeling says three director seats will be up for election this fall, with two incumbents running and the eastern district position vacant. Ebeling encourages anyone passionate about public education living on the east side of the Pella Community School District to gather signatures and apply to be on the ballot.

The deadline to submit for all public school board election paperwork is Thursday at 5 p.m.
