2025 Elections

School boards in the Ferguson-Florissant and Riverview Garden school districts retain most incumbent leaders to bring stability as they navigate financial uncertainty.

The school board races signal a desire from voters to move past some of the culture war issues the districts have faced in recent years.

St. Louis voters elected a new leader and 3 newcomers to the city's public school board.

LaMika Covington, Jamil Franklin and Michael Palmer were elected Tuesday.

The result is a major win for St. Louis County Executive Sam Page, who argued that the proposal amounted to a power grab by the county council.

Three of the seven races for odd-numbered wards were uncontested. The elected officials will be sworn into office on April 15.

The current president of the SLPS Board of Education was the lone candidate running for reelection. Three other candidates running together with the support of charter school advocates also fell short of election.

Darlene Green, who became comptroller in 1995, had faced little to no opposition in her eight previous elections.

Cara Spencer, currently St. Louis' 8th Ward alderwoman, defeated Mayor Tishaura Jones on Tuesday. She will be inaugurated April 15.
