The two candidates running unopposed in the Nov. 7 election for Gainesville City School Board say the size of the middle and high schools are among the biggest challenges they want to see the board address. Andy Stewart, 44, is the lone candidate running for the District 1 seat currently held by School Board Chairman Brett Mercer, who decided not to seek re-election. Heather Ramsey, 40, is the only one on the ballot for the District 4 School Board seat currently held by Delores Diaz, who is not seeking a third term.
