The letter is one of the items on the agenda for Tuesday's 4 p.m. Board of Education meeting.
Roberts was the second leading vote-getter,finishing behind Jeff Koch in the April 7 election. Former Board President Anne Sharp finished third.
Roberts was recently confirmed as head of the Missouri Department of Public Safety and will continue to serve in that position.

Too late. He might have gotten the votes but he has obviously missed the 14 day time period. And let's not forget one of Mr. Huff's moto's, "rules are rules".
This is a crock - he missed the 14 day window. Not only that, but the community sent a message by voting for him - they were voting out Sharp!
Roberts needs to follow the rules.
There is nothing to keep him for applying for the open seat. If the six board members don't select him for the job, they would be ignoring the voters. Let's keep Lane!!
@4:59, I guess if he wants to resubmit his name for the one year he has the right. However, it needs to be voted on again. He missed the certification of his previous term.
little concerned bout resident requirement....however..be good to get on elect president, then resign...
Turner how can this happen????
What is his stand on the current state of affairs in R8 land?
If he fills the seat, it will be interesting to see if Huff tries to schedule meetings for times when Roberts is out of town, too.
i am going to hope that now that Roberts has a bigger stage than Joplin, with bigger papers than the Globe to cover him, that he will not want to be too closely associated with a corrupt school official. It might be too late to save Huff's career, so why would Roberts want to ruin his own reputation? I'm going to hope for the best until I see reason for doubt.
My first reaction is not for the family audience of this blog.
The second is that we're probably headed for a lawsuit at best, since as noted the law says he's no longer eligible, something Huff and company know since that was their plan to keep Koch off the board.
Third is that this situation is wilder than I could have ever imagined.
Is there any other district that has as many weird occurrences than ours? Maybe if we didn't get in the Guinness Book of Records with that ribbon we can get in with number of weird events. Hopefully, common sense will return soon, maybe even tomorrow night, because we need it...
For our kids
I just read that changed his mind again.
Roberts wants to swoop in and save CJ
