(KNZA)--The Hiawatha School Board Monday evening interviewed two candidates to fill a vacant position on the board, but made no decision.
Interviewed to fill the position of longtime board member Dr. Pete Rosa were Jacquie Kerl and Andrea Groth.
A straw poll was taken after both were asked seven questions to gain a consensus and ended in a 3-3 tie.
Following discussion, it became apparent no board member was going to change their mind. The Board decided to table a decision until their July board meeting when both candidates will be invited back.
Board members agreed they have two great candidates and can't go wrong with either one.
The person appointed will fill a term expiring in January 2022. The position is up for election in November of next year.
Rosa resigned at the end of last month's board meeting after 15 years on the board.
