Triton school committee elects officers, plans subcommittee assignments and confirms meeting schedule
Summary
During its May 21 meeting the committee elected its officers for 2025–26, confirmed facilities subcommittee membership will remain unchanged for the coming year, and approved next year's meeting schedule and consent agenda items including donations and a field trip planning request.
The Triton Regional School Committee on May 21 completed its annual organization business: officers were nominated and elected, subcommittee assignments were discussed and committee members approved the proposed meeting schedule for the 2025–26 school year.
Committee members nominated and approved a chair, vice chair and secretary for the coming year by voice vote and consensus; the meeting record shows motions and seconds for each officer position and committee acceptance of the slate. The chair also proposed retaining the current facilities subcommittee membership because that group will continue work on district building issues; members present agreed to reappoint the existing facilities group.
Members were asked to send first, second and third choices for the remaining subcommittees (policy & advocacy; personnel negotiations; finance) so the chair can present a formal membership proposal at the June meeting. The committee also approved the proposed meeting schedule and consent agenda items, which included two donations (school math supplies and a $500 donation for Salisbury Elementary STEM) and a planning approval for an out‑of‑state overnight ecology camp field trip for Newbury Elementary's sixth graders (October 6–10, 2025).
No controversial or substantive policy changes were made during the organizational votes; the committee moved to address substantive business items for the rest of the meeting.
