Write-In Candidate Joins Elmbrook Race

Brookfield resident Nancy Kormanik on Monday filed as a formal write-in candidate for the Elmbrook School Board race in which Sandra Schultz is challenging incumbent board member Kathryn Wilson.

Kormanik's name will not appear on the April 5 ballot for the at-large seat. 

Incumbent Board President Tom Gehl is not contested for re-election. Richard Brunner and Ken Moe are vying for the Area I seat held by Gary Jones, who chose not to run for re-election.

An election forum will be held at 7 p.m. March 21 at the Elmbrook Schools Central Administrative Office, 13780 Hope St.

At a recent School Board meeting, Kormanik told the board it should not add a 4-year-old kindergarten program, because it is not state-mandated and as a choice, should be funded by parents, not taxpayers.
