The Christina School Board fills its vacant seat based in Wilmington.
Celita Cherry was selected to take the District A seat replacing Shannon Troncoso who resigned in December.
Cherry - an empowerment coach - was appointed to the board over Joseph Lewis, a former teacher at the Delaware School for the Deaf.
She’s a Wilmington native, and her appointment is for the rest of the school year.
The seat will be up for election this spring to fill out the remaining term, and Cherry has filed to run in May’s election.
