The Madison County School Board elected Harvey Walden as chair for the 2025–26 school year, named Jason Compton vice chair and selected other officers during a roll-call vote at a regularly scheduled meeting.
The board’s votes formalize its leadership for the coming year and assign roles needed to oversee meetings and committees. The votes were held by roll call after nominations were made from the floor.
Board members nominated officers and then answered individually on the record during a roll call. The recorded votes show the board’s membership voting in the affirmative for the slate of officers, including Walden as chair and Compton as vice chair. The board also named a chair pro tem, a parliamentarian and a representative to the TLN position.
The nominations and roll calls took place in open session; no competing slates or recorded no votes were noted in the transcript. The meeting record shows the board intends to proceed with these officers in place for board business and committee assignments in the coming year.
