Hyde Park board casts runoff vote for BOCES seat, selects Bryce Holland
Summary
At a May 6 special meeting, the Hyde Park Central School District Board of Education cast its runoff ballot for Bryce Holland of Poughkeepsie for a Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) seat; the board recorded four votes for Holland and then adjourned.
The Hyde Park Central School District Board of Education voted May 6, 2025, to cast its runoff ballot for Bryce Holland of Poughkeepsie for a seat on the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES), recording four votes for Holland.
Board members convened a special meeting, took the pledge of allegiance and adopted the meeting agenda before holding the runoff vote. An unidentified board member explained the process and the choices: “So the 2 candidates that we are voting for is Mark Fleischauer from Rhinebeck or Bryce Holland from Poughkeepsie.”
After motions to open the vote, board members were asked to name their choice when called. One speaker noted the count during the roll call: “Bryce is a 3, 4. So 4 votes for Bryce.” The board then moved to adjourn.
The runoff selection was the only substantive action recorded in the meeting minutes provided; no additional discussion of the candidates or of BOCES policy responsibilities was included in the transcript. The Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) is a regional entity that provides shared educational services to member districts; the transcript did not specify the term length for the seat or any next steps following the board’s vote.
The special meeting lasted only long enough to adopt the agenda, complete the runoff vote, and adjourn.
