A long-time school board member Pat Cahill said she will seek an additional term on the Ankeny School Board not only because she's been encouraged to.

“I also feel that being on the School Board is a productive and worthwhile thing to do,” Cahill said in an email to Patch. “I cannot imagine spending my time in any better way than to be involved with the education of Ankeny children.”

Cahill served on the school board for 12 years before taking a break in 2005 and sought re-election in 2008.

“Being on the School Board gives me the pleasure and privilege of working with great people in a great school District. Working with the current School Board and with Dr. Kimpston has been a productive and positive experience, and I am hoping to be able to continue to do that,” Cahill said.

Cahill is one of three board members seeking re-election in September.
