Chadds Ford’s Carolyn Daniels raised her right hand and took the oath of office to become the new Region C representative to the Unionville-Chadds Ford School Board.
She will serve the remaining two years of Frank Murphy’s term. Murphy resigned from the board in June. Leticia Flores DeWilde had been appointed to fill in for Murphy until the November general election, but was defeated in the election by Daniels.
Region C is made up of Chadds Ford and Pennsbury townships.
Also new to the school board are Michael Rock and Steven Simonson from Region B, comprising Birmingham, Pocopson and Newlin townships. Rock and Simonson replace Jeff Leiser and Holly Manzone, both of whom chose not to run for re-election.
Incumbent board Directors Jeff Hellrung and Keith Knauss were also sworn in for another term. They ran unopposed in November and will, again, represent Region A, East and West Marlborough.
The swearing in ceremony took place during the board’s Dec. 2 re-organization meeting in the district office meeting room.
During the meeting, Vic Dupuis, also from region A, was elected board president and Chadds Ford’s Gregg Lindner was elected vice president.
Following the reorganization, board members voted to hire Megan Garvin as a special education teacher at CF Patton Middle School. Her hiring is part of the autistic support program.
