Hankins Elliott Named To HR School Board

The Hood River County School District board selected Dr. Corinda Hankins Elliott to fill the zone 3 seat on the panel.  Hankins Elliott was tabbed from a field of three applicants for the position after interviews on Wednesday evening.  Hankins Elliott is a pediatrician who has been a volunteer in a number of May Street Elementary programs in recent years.  She will serve on the board for the next year, filling the term of Kateri Osborne-Lohr, who stepped down with the end of the school year after nine years in the position.  The seat will be on the May 2017 election ballot.  Zone 3 represents the downtown and eastern portion of Hood River.
