Members of the public and media gathered at the Atlantic High School Auditorium last night for a candidate forum of potential school board members in the upcoming elections.

7 candidates running for three open spots on the Atlantic School Board answered a number of questions from a media panel and the public. The seven candidates are: Doug Bierbaum, Alison Bruckner, Bob Drogo, Mark Foegen, Dennis Schwanke, Dr. Keith Swanson, and Jenny Williams.

Atlantic Junior Tori Krogh was part of the media panel at the event reporting for the school newspaper and is Secretary of the Student Council.  She said it was a great opportunity to hear more about the candidates and their ideas.  She also said she does see the impact of the concerns brought up by the public at the forum and encouraged students to get involved and make an impact as well.
