School budget votes take place across Long Island Tuesday. In East Hampton, board of education candidate Linda McCabe Silich was not included in Sunday's Voters Guide because she filed a late petition after another candidate dropped out. Silich is running against Alison Anderson, Lauren Dempsey and George Aman, and incumbents Sandra E. Vorpahl and Wendy J. Hall for three seats with three-year terms.

Here is Silich's information:

BACKGROUND: Silich, 47, a personal trainer at a local fitness studio, also owns an East Hampton landscaping business with her husband, Andrija (Andy) and another co-owner. A 10-year resident of the district, she and her husband have three children attending district schools. Silich received a bachelor's degree from Wittenberg University in Ohio. She volunteers for the PTA and is active in the BONAC On Board for Wellness 5K run.

ISSUES: Silich said she wants better communication between parents and the administration on all matters, especially its finances. As an athletic individual who believes in healthy choices, she does not want the sports curriculum to be cut if the budget fails. "I think that is an integral part of a children's education," she said.
