Edwin B. Henderson II, a long-time local civil rights activist and founder of Falls Church’s Tinner Hill Foundation, was unanimously voted onto the School Board of the Falls Church City Public Schools by the board Tuesday night. He fills the seat vacated by the resignation of Shawna Russell last month and he will serve through the end of 2021 pending an upcoming November election when that position and three others on the seven-member board will be contested.
