President Lord explained to the Springfield School District Board on Sept. 25 that the district, as a member of the Pennsylvania School Boards Association (PSBA), must designate a representative to register votes in the PSBA election. The board approved a recommendation that Miss Flynn register the district’s votes for the 2026 PSBA officers and trustees by voice vote, 7‑0.
The candidates listed by the district for PSBA offices included Holly Arnold for president‑elect; Matt Vannoy for vice president; Taslim Morales for sectional advisor; Roberta M. Marcus and Kathy K. Swope for trustee positions, as presented at the meeting.
President Lord described the PSBA as a member association that provides policy guidance and resources to member districts; the board’s action authorized Miss Flynn to cast Springfield’s ballots in the PSBA election process.
