Cindy McDaniel, Mark Rudoff and Gary Ujka have applied for the board seat left open after Vic Lenz's departure for a state education board spot.

Three residents will take a shot at running to fill a vacancy on the Lindbergh School District Board of Education.

Cindy McDaniel, Mark Rudoff and Gary Ujka have applied for the board seat left open after Vic Lenz's departure, according to the Call.

Gov. Jay Nixon appointed Lenz to the Missouri State Board of Education in June, and state board members are not allowed to serve a local school district board term concurrently.

Lindbergh board candidates will be interviewed Aug. 12

McDaniel is the owner of recruiting company Professional Staffing of St. Louis. He ran unsuccessfully for the board in the April election, while according to the Call, Rudoff served 13 years on the Lindbergh board before stepping down in 2012. He is associate vice president, Western Trial Division Field Operations, for the Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co.

Ujka announces home football games for the Lindbergh High School Flyers, and is a retired Rockwood School District teacher, administrator and assistant principal.
