When Shoreline School Board member Maren Norton announced June 10 that she would not seek a second term on the Board, she endorsed candidate Dick Nicholson for her position.

Nicholson is running unopposed for the position representing District 4 on the five-member Board.

Norton said that she would not seek re-election because her work as an attorney will require a great amount of travel over the next few years.

She thanked voters for giving her the honor of serving four years on the Board.

Board members Richard Potter and Mike Jacobs both are running for re-election with single opponents in the November general election.
