Nearly two dozen people are running for three seats on the Detroit school board during a pivotal time for the school district. Only one of the three incumbents, Sherry Gay-Dagnogo, is seeking re-election. That means there will be two new faces on the board, as members Misha Stallworth and Sonya Mays have opted not to seek re-election.
