Incumbent Wendy Smith is running for re-election to Vancouver School Board, Position 3. Smith has served as a school board director since 2017 and was previously a teacher for 17 years. Her campaign platform is focused on addressing the mental health challenges facing students, improving the school board's transparency, and supporting dual-language programs. Smith wants to respect community demands to ensure resources are allocated to programs that will improve the lives of students.

Smith is facing Jorge Bailey in this race. Bailey is a veteran who directs three nonprofit organizations in the Clark County area and has 30 years of experience working in finance. However, the platform he lists on his website neglects important issues like providing more mental health resources for students and expanding the school district's curriculum.

Smith is the best choice in the race for Vancouver School Board, Position 3.
