Deadline nears for school board races

There is still time to get your name on the ballot for the Bartholomew Consolidated or Flat Rock-Hawcreek School board races in the November election.

Bartholomew County Clerk Jay Phelps says you have until noon tomorrow to apply. You can pick up the documents you need at the voter registration office in the county courthouse. Phelps said you must have a completed petition with 10 signatures to get on the ballot.

Phelps said that the incumbents for the three open seats on the BCSC board have filed for re-election, as have most of the incumbents on the Flat Rock-Hawcreek board. There are also challengers in several of the BCSC races.
