HB1234

Identifying certain school district offices as incompatible for purposes of school district elections.

Chamber Passed·3/17/26

New Hampshire HB1234 clarifies incompatible positions for school district elections, prohibiting certain roles from holding office simultaneously.

New Hampshire HB1234 amends RSA 671:18 to specify qualifications for school district office candidates. It prohibits individuals from holding more than one incompatible office at the same time, including roles such as school board member, treasurer, auditor, clerk, and budget committee member-at-large. Additionally, it bans candidates from filing for two or more incompatible offices simultaneously. The act also restricts school administrative unit employees, such as teachers and administrators, from serving as school board members or budget committee members-at-large.
