Four of the seven seats on the San Felipe Del Rio Consolidated Independent School District school board were up for general election on May 7, 2016. Place 2 incumbent Joshua Overfelt and Place 7 Amy Haynes filed for re-election, while Charles "Chuck" Garabedian did not file for re-election in Place 6.
