Two finalists for Student Member of the Board of Education were chosen on March 1.

Will Bucher, a junior at Montgomery Blair High School, and Ben Moskowitz, a junior at Walter Johnson High School, were selected by 411 representatives from middle and high schools who attended the Student Member of the Board nominating convention.

The finalists were chosen from a field of three candidates at the convention, held at James Hubert Blake High School.

On April 25, all Montgomery County Public Schools secondary students will have the opportunity to vote for one of the two candidates to serve as their 30th student representative on the Board.

The current student Board member, Sarah Horvitz, is a senior at Springbrook High School. Her term expires June 30, 2007.
