Dianne Barrett Not Among 9 Running for D86 Board: Election 2013

Dianne Barrett is the only District 86 Board of Education member up for re-election next spring who will not be running, according to district administration.

Wednesday was the last day those interested in running could file their nominating papers with the district. Current Board President Dennis Brennan and members Kay Gallo and DeeDee Gorgol were among those who filed along with six other challengers.

Barrett has been in a legal battle with District 86 over board member access to student records since 2010. 

Barring any objections, the April 9 ballot will feature the following candidates for District 86 school board:

• Claudia D. Manley
• Jennifer Babbington
• Victor M. Casini
• Dennis A. Brennan (incumbent)
• Deirdre "DeeDee" Gorgol (incumbent)
• Kay S. Gallo (incumbent)
• Roseanne Rosenthal
• Edward A. Corcoran
• Roger J. Kempa
