If you ever thought about serving on the South Milwaukee School Board, this might be your chance.
One person — incumbent Theresa C. Travia — has declared to run for School Board this spring. Here’s the problem: Two seats are up for election.
That sets up a scenario where one of the two spots — the one to be vacated by board member Kristin Grenier-Drenzek — will be filled by a write-in candidate, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Surprising news … and disappointing. Apathy is never a good thing.
“I am sure there will be an effort made by private citizens and so forth as it becomes public,” Superintendent David Ewald told the Journal Sentinel.
I hope so. Candidates serve three-year terms.

Yikes!
Considering how important the school board is, it’s a shame to see there aren’t enough candidates for the vacant seats.
