Keith is a former theatre student from Roosevelt under the direction of the amazing former art and theatre teacher Lana Miles back in the day. Congrats Mayor Wilson!

We are so excited to share that Roosevelt High School alumnus Keith Wilson will be the next mayor of the City of Portland!

Keith serves on the Board of Directors for our organization as a representative of the 1980s classes. We have appreciated his insight; he has been vital to our discussions. In particular, Keith was a positive force in the goal-setting session for this fiscal year, where his contributions helped us outline a clear vision for the coming year. When he volunteers, his energy seems endless, and he is happy to meet every alumnus he crosses paths with, making everyone feel valued and connected. We know he has some busy years ahead of him now, but we look forward to the time we will still have with him and the new experiences he'll bring to the table.

We may be biased, but we believe his St. Johns and Roughrider roots will serve him well while he is in office. Congratulations, Keith.
