Two candidates drop out of Lawrence school board race
Lawrence voters will see three open seats filled on the board as Jill Hayhurst and Steve Wallace withdraw from the race. Wallace, Tecumseh Heights High School social studies teacher and boys basketball coach, cites family needs. Hayhurst, formerly a Hallmark Cards manager, says life changes prevent the time commitment. Their names remain on the November ballot due to filing rules. Remaining candidates continue campaigning for the three seats.
