The Avoyelles Parish School has announced on Social Media on Friday, November 16, Chris Robinson will be the new School Board member of the District 6 seat, as the incumbent has withdrawn from the runoff election.
The seat represents a portion of the Bunkie area.
Robinson was scheduled for a run off with incumbent Lizzie Ned next month. Ned received 32% of the November 3 election with Robinson receiving 49%.
The APSB post welcomed Robinson to the new board who will now have two incumbents, Van Kojis and Chris Lacour, serving.
“Mrs. Ned has graciously withdrawn,” the post read. “We welcome Mr. Robinson to our family.”
The new board will be sworn into office during the January 2019 meeting.
