2026 Trustee Election Information

About The Board Of Trustees

The Edna ISD Board of Trustees is composed of seven members, each elected to serve an overlapping three-year term without compensation. Elections are held annually in May. Although candidates run for specific places (Places 1 through 7), each place represents a specific geographical area within the seven single-member districts. Following the election, the Board convenes to elect a President, Vice-President, and Secretary from among its members, each of whom serves a one-year term in that office.

The next Board of Trustees election is scheduled for May 2, 2026, with Place 5 and Place 7 up for election.

The Filing Period For A Place On the May 2, 2026, ballot is Wednesday, January 14, 2026, through Friday, February 13, 2026. Applications will be available during this time at the Edna ISD Administration Office.
