Boscawen’s Patrick Sadlemire, on the ballot for a three-year seat on the Merrimack Valley School Board, announced on Tuesday that he was dropping out of the race.

He cited “time constraints and a change in personal circumstances” in a post on Facebook.

His departure from the race leaves Stacie Jarvis as the sole candidate running for Boscawen’s three-year term. 

“I’m sure the opposing candidate Stacie Jarvis will do a fine job in this position,” Sadlemire wrote.

There are still two contested school board races: Boscawen’s Tom Laliberte faces off against Gary Tillman for a one-year seat and Salisbury’s Louise Andrus and Lorna Carlisle compete for a three-year seat.

Residents from all five communities in the Merrimack Valley School District may cast there votes in each race.

Polls are open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday at Merrimack Valley High School.
