Only five elementary school districts in McHenry County have contests for school board.
Two are in the southwest corner, one in the northeast corner and two in the southeastern part of the county.

Riley Grade School District 18 has three vacancies and five candidates. I believe Riley is McHenry County’s smallest school district.

Cal, correction to your D-26 list. Members with terms expiring are Jason Larry, Scott Coffey, Kevin Carrick, and Vicki Pesch. Larry, Coffey, and Carrick were all appointed. Pesch was elected as the lone candidate in April, 2009 for a 2 year seat to complete Julie Lehman’s term (Lehman resigned in 2008 and passed away in 2009).
