Mike Hutchinson

Mike Hutchinson is a huge and unwavering advocate for Oakland schools – he shows up where he’s needed and pushes hard on other school board directors and the administration. Hutchinson currently serves as OUSD School Board Director of District 5, but due to redistricting he now lives in D4 and is running for the D4 seat. He has strongly advocated for ending school closures since his election in 2020. We hope that Hutchinson will continue to build bridges with everyone at the table, and with the more progressive school board of directors that we will hopefully elect this year, to co-conspire for a strong, transparent budget and keeping schools open.
