Jessica Chambers has withdrawn her candidacy for the Columbia School Board race.
Chambers withdrew before the ballot was brought to the board for consideration, a district spokesperson confirmed to KOMU 8. Candidates can withdraw until the board approves the ballot.
Erica Dickson, Ken Rice and incumbent Suzette Waters are the three remaining candidates in the campaign to serve in the two open seats on the seven-member board. All but Waters are first-time candidates for the board.
Blake Willoughby, who is completing his second, three-year term, is not seeking re-election.
The election is April 8.
