BATAVIA – A proposal to shift the cost of teacher pensions from the state onto the local school districts is among issues facing the seven candidates running for four seats on the Batavia School District 101 board.

Incumbent Tina Bleakley, who was appointed in July to fill a vacancy on the board, is the only incumbent running for re-election. Board President Ron Link, along with Vice President Jack Hinterlong and board member Joseph Purpura, are not running for re-election.

Other candidates in the race include Jonathan Gaspar, Garrick Grizaffi, Jim Karner, Susan Locke, Michael Papka and Jason Stoops.
