The Robbinsdale School Board Has Appointed A New Member To Its Ranks After A Recent Resignation.

The Robbinsdale School Board has appointed a new member to its ranks after a recent resignation.

Kenneth Wutoh was appointed to the board on Tuesday, Feb. 18.

Wutoh will take the seat previously held by Sharon Brooks, who resigned early in February.

He ran for a seat on the school board in the November 2024 election and came in fourth place in a three-seat race.

Wutoh lost by just 15 votes.

Now-seated Board Member Aviva Hillenbrand received 12,841 votes, edging out Wutoh’s 12,826 votes.

The board also considered using an application and interview process to fill the vacancy.

Some members were concerned that process would take too long, saying voters had already weighed in on the issue.

There is a 30-day waiting period before Wutoh can be seated.

His term will run through December 2026.
