The Saint Lucie County School Board voted unanimously on multiple administrative items during its July 8 meeting: appointment of an FSBA Advocacy Committee representative and alternate, approval of the superintendent’s 2025–26 goals, and the superintendent’s annual evaluation.
Those votes matter because they set the board's governance delegations to the Florida School Boards Association (FSBA), authorize the superintendent’s stated priorities for the coming year, and record the board’s formal performance determination for the superintendent under his contract.
Board members moved and seconded the FSBA appointment during an agenda item that explained FSBA committee leadership terms run July 1–June 30 and that each district must select a representative by August. The board approved "Debbie Harley" as the district's representative and "Troy Ingersoll" as alternate by voice vote, 5–0. The board then moved to approve the superintendent’s four proposed goals for 2025–26 — core instruction priorities, classrooms‑to‑careers implementation, facility reinvestment planning and expanded student/staff mental‑health supports — and approved them 5–0.
For the annual evaluation, the chair asked each board member to record "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory" as required under the superintendent’s contract. Each board member announced "satisfactory" (including Mr. Ingersoll who said, "the superintendent's definitely earned a satisfactory") and the board subsequently moved and recorded the evaluation as satisfactory by unanimous vote.
The transcript shows the votes were taken during the meeting (FSBA selection, approval of goals, evaluation) and recorded as 5–0 each time. The board also approved the consent agenda earlier in the meeting by voice vote, 5–0. The meeting minutes and board clerk will retain the formal records of these votes and the appointments to FSBA.
