H-D school board election has one contested seat; Hansen vs. Rosenberg

     The Hampton-Dumont Community School District will have its election for three open board of director seats on Sept. 10.

     Two of the three seats are not contested – those of Thomas Brolsma and Chad Hanson.

     The third seat – that of the Hampton-Dumont director - currently held by Jennifer Hansen – is being contested.    Hansen is being challenged by local resident Jeff Rosenberg.

     Chad Hanson – who has been on the board for four years – is seeking his second term.

     One of the reasons he became involved in the school board, Hanson said, was the fact he has four children currently attending district schools. He also cited his pride in the district and being a Hampton-Dumont graduate.

     "I just have a lot of pride in the school and in the community," Chad Hanson said. "I look at it as a way to give back and contribute to the community. I feel like it treated me well, so I want to help out as much as I can."
