Voters selected Steve Bruce, Scott Hovis and Lori Massman to represent the community on the Jefferson City Public Schools Board of Education.
Six candidates ran for three open seats on the board in Tuesday's election.
Massman, 53, has worked at Scholastic for 31 years and is currently community development manager there.
Hovis, 43, is the executive director of the Missouri Golf Association.
Bruce, 41, is the school board's incumbent vice president and works in financial and administrative services for the state's Division of Developmental Disabilities.
Here is the vote breakdown for the candidates:
Lori Massman, 25.2 percent, with 9,974 votes;
Scott Hovis, 17.9 percent, with 7,079 votes;
Steve Bruce, 16.5 percent, with 6,550 votes;
Victoria Sterling, 12.8 percent, with 5,107 votes;
Paul Graham, 12.1 percent, with 4,784 votes;
Don Salcedo, 8.6 percent, with 3,431 votes.
Joshua Harmon was a seventh candidate on the ballot. Harmon died in a car accident in February, after the cut-off date for his name to be removed from the ballot. Harmon still received 5.9 percent of the vote, with 2,339 votes.
School board members serve three-year terms.
Current board President John Ruth and Treasurer Ken Theroff did not seek re-election.
Ruth said formal reorganization of the board will occur at the next board meeting, scheduled Monday. The new members will be sworn in, then votes to select a new president and treasurer will take place.
"I'm excited to get to work with a great superintendent," Hovis said. "Today wasn't about me, but it was about the kids."
That's a sentiment Bruce echoed, too.
"The fact that I got re-elected to the board is, in my mind, small in comparison in that we were able to bring home a second high school," Bruce said of Tuesday's election results, which included approval of Propositions J and C to build a new high school, renovate the existing high school and increase the operating levy. "I am so proud of the support our community has put behind our public schools."
He added, though, "We've got a lot of work to do," both in terms of improving the district's climate and culture, getting resources deployed for teachers in classrooms, and of course, building the second high school.
Salcedo said he doesn't plan to continue to play a role in the district's affairs.
"I'll let those who are younger and have more of a stake in the future" carry on, he said. "I'm a 74-year-old retiree," he explained - adding, "I gave it a good go."
"I would hope - and that's one of the reasons why I ran for the board - to make sure the tax monies are spent in a prudent manner," he said. "I just hope everything works out well for everybody."
