2018
Three seats on the St. Joseph School District school board in Missouri were up for general election on April 3, 2018. The seats of Larry Koch, Martin Rucker, and Dennis Snethen were up for grabs in this election. Koch was the only incumbent who filed for re-election and faced challengers Lute Atieh, Aaron Duncan, Lorrie Lynn Hollis, David Jordan, Kenneth Reeder, and Seth Wright.[1]
The three winners of this race were sworn in shortly before the contract of the district's new superintendent commences. The school board announced Dr. Doug Van Zyl as the district's new superintendent on February 1, 2018, following Dr. Robert Newhart's announcement in late 2017 that he would retire as the district's superintendent at the end of the 2017-2018 school year.

Kenneth Reeder did not complete Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey. Responding to the question why he wanted to be on the board, Reeder said he was particularly motivated when he saw that fellow candidate Seth Wright had filed. He also stated he's been involved in what he called "this fight" since 2009, when he fought against a ballot measure. “I’ve been ostracized, derided by the most elite group of people in this town … but I’ve stayed with the fight,” he said. Reeder also said his priority objectives as a board member would be fighting for taxpayers and teachers, and that "people that are underpaid and underappreciated notoriously in this district." When asked what set him apart from the other candidates, he replied that he would be the watchdog on the board; “somebody who is going to raise their hand and take the bullets. There’s not much else I can prove along that line.”[2]
