At the March 22 meeting of the Spencerport Board of Education, Board President Kevin Hutton shared a letter announcing his decision to step down from the board effective April 15, 2022, due to his health.
“It is with considerable thought and consultation with my family that I have made this decision, and it has weighed heavily on me for quite some time. As many of you may know, my recovery from COVID-19 has been arduous, and while I have been slowly improving, I am experiencing the condition that is widely referred to as long COVID. It has come to a point where the circumstances around my health must take priority and requires my full strength and attention,” Hutton wrote.
“Spencerport means the world to me, and I am indebted to this community for the privilege to work alongside the best faculty, administrators, staff, students, and families anywhere. I have loved serving on the school board for the last 10 years and am so proud of the work we have done toward our district’s mission to educate and inspire each student. My hope is that I have made some imprint, however big or small, in doing what is best for kids.”
Mr. Hutton will be working with Superintendent Kristin Swann, board trustees and legal counsel on a process to fill this vacancy.
Superintendent Kristin Swann said of the announcement, “I have learned very quickly how much this community means to Kevin (Hutton) and how proud he is of the school district. I appreciate how difficult this decision was for him and truly hope he recovers to full strength. His leadership and service will be missed.”
