Those interested in being considered to fill a vacancy on the Ann Arbor Board of Education have until Friday, Feb. 19, at 4 p.m. to submit an application.
Candidates will be interviewed by the school board on Monday, March 8. Candidates will make presentations at the regular board meeting and a new trustee selected on Wednesday, March 10.
