School board member Bob Gepner said he and his family plan to move from the school district this summer, so he won't seek a second term.

"We need good people in there," he said. "I feel this has made me a better person, being associated with the people on the board, the administrators, the teachers. I think people would get a lot out of it if they would just associate with those people."

The two other school board members whose terms expire next year Phil Weide and Bob DeHoff plan to run again.

But Weide, who represents the city district, will run for the north district seat that Gepner is vacating because Weide has moved into that area.

"We have a very good board," Weide said. "Dr. Erickson does a great job.are elected by a citywide vote to four-year terms. The terms of council members Pat Albert and Janet Angell, and Mayor John Franiuk will expire in 2003.

Like city council members, school board members are elected to four-year terms.

However, voters in school board elections vote for the candidates in their districts in the primary election only. In the general election, voters in the entire district can vote for any candidate, regardless of his or her district.
