A new superintendent won't be the only new leader around Montgomery County's schools next year.

The county's school board could see at least two new members after elections in November, as terms expire for members David Dunkenberger of District C, Jamie Bond of District D and Phyllis Albritton of District A.

Dunkenberger, on the board for one term, said he will not run for re-election. Bond and Albritton will.

The deadline to run for elected office in Montgomery County passed at 7 p.m. Tuesday. A total of 11 seats are open in races for Blacksburg Town Council, the county's board of supervisors and the school board.

Voters who cast ballots on Nov. 3 for supervisors should expect to see a ballot filled with familiar faces, while a flock of newcomers are eyeing Blacksburg Town Council's open seats. Two council incumbents, Al Leighton and Tom Sherman, did not file for re-election by Tuesday’s deadline.

"I have enjoyed my time on the board; however, multiple requirements of my time and family has forced me to make some changes," Dunkenberger wrote in an e-mail last week.

Only one person filed to fill his spot on the seven-member school board -- Mark Caldwell III.

In 2005 no one filed to run, and Dunkenberger was elected through a write-in campaign.

Rounding out the school board race, incumbent Jamie Bond, who backed the use of creationism in the classroom during her last campaign, is facing challenger Leonard Session. He is a former principal for Auburn Middle School who was dismissed from his position and sued the school board nearly two decades ago.

"It's time for me to put up or shut up," Session said.

Albritton was appointed to the board in 2007 to represent sections of Blacksburg and the county. Voters then selected her during a special election last year. She is unopposed in the election. School board seats are nonpartisan.

For the board of supervisors, the three incumbents are unopposed.

In Blacksburg, a supermajority of council seats is up for grabs in what will be the town's first November election. The mayor's position, along with four seats on the council, are on the ballot. The seats are voted on at-large.

Eleven people filed to run for the five open slots.

Last year, the council voted to change elections from May to November of odd-numbered years in hopes of boosting turnout significantly. The highest town election turnout on record in the past 15 years is 22 percent. November county elections often bring out twice that percentage of voters, or more.
