Basin Elementary school board trustee Terry Heaton will be replaced by Basin resident DeDe Rhodes when his term expires in May.
Rhodes, who previously served on Basin’s water and sewer board and a transportation board in Texas years ago, has been working with a group of community volunteers to help the school reopen since it entered non-operational status last June.
“The best way I can help now is to get on the school board to see if we can save the school,” said Rhodes, adding that the school board has had difficulty communicating with the state Office of Public Instruction.
