Council Member Stone elected chair of City–School Liaison Committee
Summary
Council Member Stone was chosen chair of the City–School Liaison Committee in a 4-0 vote. The committee noted a tradition of alternating the chair between city and district each year.
Council Member Stone was elected chair of the Palo Alto City–School Liaison Committee by a unanimous 4-0 vote during the committee meeting.
Committee members said the chairmanship typically alternates each year between the school district and the city; because the district held the chair last year, the city side was in line to select the chair this term. A nomination was made for Stone to serve as chair; Stone "I'll accept it," the meeting record shows. A second was offered and the committee then voted. The roll call recorded Board Member Camille as "aye," Council Member Liu as "yes," Board President Sigel as "Aye," and Council Member Stone as "Yes." The motion carried 4-0.
The committee convened with a quorum present and completed the chair selection as its first formal action. Committee members discussed no substantive changes to committee scope as part of the vote; they paused selection to move later to agenda-setting and future meeting planning.
The newly seated chair said she looked forward to working with district and city colleagues over the coming year to advance joint priorities between the city and PAUSD.
The committee did not record further formal actions on the chair selection beyond the vote.
