Mendham School Board Elections 2024: See List Of Candidates

MENDHAM, NJ — The 2024 general election will likely be a high-turnout year with a presidential race on the ballot. But there will also be local decisions to be made on Nov. 5 in the Mendham Borough and Mendham Township Board of Education races.

Monday was the deadline for all candidates to submit their petitions to run for school board this November.

Residents in the Mendhams will see choices for their K-8 school districts on the ballot, including current members running for re-election and any challengers. There are no borough or township candidates for the West Morris Regional High School District, as those seats are not up for re-election this year.

Below is a list of candidates, and a campaign slogan if they submitted one. All information comes from the Morris County Clerk's office, and these positions are three-year terms unless stated otherwise.

Mendham Borough School District (voters can select up to 3)

• Deborah D'Urso (incumbent), "Blue Ribbon Education"
• Cristin Adnolfi (incumbent), "Dedication Leadership Experience"
• Lauren Trialonas
• Carol Anne Pagana, "Dedicated, Trustworthy, Compassionate"

Mendham Township School District (voters can select up to 2)

• Adam P. Dubeck (incumbent)
• Peter Dumovic (incumbent), "Dedication Leadership Experience"
• Natasha Crossan, "Education-Focused, Fiscally Responsible"

Positions on school boards in towns in New Jersey are unpaid; board members help determine how educational resources and taxes are allocated and spent, and work with educators and administrators to plan the future of the district.

Early voting will take place from Saturday, Oct. 26 through Sunday, Nov. 3. The general election is Tuesday, Nov. 5.
