Portland School Board members elected new leaders today, selecting Dan Ryan and Dilafruz Williams as co-chairs by a 6-0 vote. This will be Ryan's second term and Williams' first. Williams replaces Bobbie Regan. By law, Oregon school boards must elect a new chairman and vice chairman every six months. The Portland board calls those positions co-chairs, and the board members in them share leadership duties. Seven members serve on Portland's board. They represent regions but serve at-large. Regan was absent today.
