There will be some new faces on school boards next term.
In addition to casting a ballot for municipal councils, residents also voted for school board trustees Monday night.
Greater Essex County District School Board
The trustees representing Windsor Wards 1, 2, and 9 are no strangers to the board. Linda Qin was an incumbent candidate, and Kim McKinley, a former board chair, is back around the table.
In Windsor Wards 3, 4, and 10, incumbent Sarah Cipkar was granted another term, and Christie Nelson will also represent residents in that area.
The incumbents Cathy Cooke and Gale Simko-Hatfield were re-elected for Windsor Wards 5, 6, 7, and 8.
