Board of Education Elections

The District 86 Board of Education consists of seven members elected to serve a term of four years. Board member's terms are staggered so there are three or four seats contested at each biennial election. You can access the term information for current board members by visiting our Board of Education page. 

As detailed in policy 2:30 (School District Elections), school board elections are held during the Consolidated General Election on the first Tuesday in April of each odd-numbered year. If that date conflicts with Passover, the election moves to the second Tuesday. The canvass of votes is conducted by the election authority no more than 21 days after the election.

District 86 is located in DuPage and Cook counties and falls within the election authority of the DuPage County Clerk (https://www.dupageco.org/election/). 

The process for filling vacancies on the board is outlined in policy 2:70 (Vacancies on the Board of Education - Filling Vacancies)
