Eckstrom, chair of Lexington Richland District 5, says the job must be non political and child centered. Tenenbaum, a teacher and nonprofit founder, argues the post should not be a stepping stone and should be appointed rather than elected. Nielsen critiques Lt. Gov Peeler’s proposals and warns candidates to avoid politics shaping education. Eckstrom and Tenenbaum previously sought statewide offices.
