[ARCHIVED] Loudoun Electoral Board Determines School Board Members’ Staggered Terms

Graphic with text about Electoral Board determination of staggered terms for the School Board

At its January 12, 2023, meeting, the Loudoun County Electoral Board determined which Loudoun County School Board members will be elected to four-year terms and to two-year terms in the November 2023 general election. 

The School Board members who will serve four-year terms are members who will be elected from the:

  • Ashburn District
  • At-Large (Countywide) District
  • Catoctin District
  • Little River District

In 2021, the Code of Virginia was amended by the General Assembly to allow the Loudoun County School Board to adopt staggered terms starting with the November 2023 general election, with the terms beginning January 1, 2024. The code, which was further amended in 2022, also called for the Loudoun County Electoral Board to conduct a random drawing at the board's first meeting of 2023 but no later than January 31, 2023, to determine which of the four members of the School Board elected in 2023 will serve four-year terms. The remaining five seats will serve two-year terms.

The November 2023 election in Loudoun will be conducted using the 2022 election district map (PDF). Loudoun County election districts were updated in 2022 through the local redistricting process based on the 2020 U.S. census.
