York County has four distinct nonpartisan school districts which are regional to the major population centers of the County: York, Clover, Rock Hill, and Fort Mill. 

Each district is comprised of Trustee seats with four-year staggered terms with specific filing requirements and appear on the ballot based on the method of filing. All school districts are represented on the ballot every even year in November. 

Individual seats within each school district will stagger base on the election cycle. Some seats will appear on the ballot with President; while the other seats appear with the Governor.
