Six new members were elected to the Fairfax County School Board Tuesday, and newcomers and incumbents alike say the board is set to take a hard look at itself and its practices in 2012.
Many candidates running for the 12-member board this year saw the race as a standoff between incumbents and reform-minded challengers.
