2 contested races for Sharyland school board election

Voters in Sharyland ISD will see two contested elections on their ballots in May.

Two newcomers will vie for the place 1 seat on the board.

Sergio Saenz, a self-employed Mission resident, will run against Meagan Sullivan, a Mission educational diagnostician.

Longtime place 1 incumbent Ricky Longoria announced earlier this month that he would not seek reelection for his spot on the board.

Voters will see a rematch in the race for Place 2.

Incumbent Alejandro Rodrigurez, a criminal investigator from Mission, will seek to defend his seat against Julio Cerda, a Mission engineer.

Rodriguez successfully ousted Cerda from the Place 2 spot in the 2020 election.
