Unlike the parent teacher council forums, where candidates were given four minutes each to tell the audience a little about themselves, Monday’s televised forum will start with questions from the LWVA and continue with questions called in by area residents.

The forum will run from 7-9 p.m. Three seperate groups of candidates will appear, because of the large number running. From 7-7:40 p.m. school board candidates Susan Fell Johnson, John Ulland, Sherri McCarty, Lewis Aase and Bob Vilt will answer questions from moderator Pat MacLean. From 7:40-8:20 p.m. candidates Brian McAlister, Kathy Green, Marian Clennon, David Solomonson, Bev Nordby and Bruce Loveland will do the same with moderator Kris Chapin. Finally, from 8:20-9 p.m., candidates Carolyn Bogott, Sue Maus, Larry Andersen, Sally Vogel and Arnold Lang will take questions from moderator Susanne Bross.
