Board swears in new members and elects officers at July reorganization meeting
Summary
Raymond Berney, James Maloney and Christine Ruggieri were sworn in as trustees at the Northport‑East Northport Board of Education reorganization meeting on July 10; Daryl Taylor was appointed president and Michael Cleary vice president.
The Northport‑East Northport Board of Education opened its July 10 meeting with the reorganization session in which newly elected trustees were sworn, officers were elected and annual appointments were approved.
Raymond Berney, James Maloney and Christine Ruggieri each took the oath of office. Student ex officio Jayden Muir also recited the oath. Trustees moved and voted to appoint Daryl Taylor as board president and Michael Cleary as vice president; each then took the oath for their officer roles.
The board discussed moving agenda items 9 through 38 for approval as a block. Trustees voted to approve many annual appointments and consent items; some items (notably 10.02, projected cash flow) were severed for separate consideration. During the consent discussion trustees asked for clarity about making financial documents more accessible to the public and whether the projected cash flow statement could be posted online, and the superintendent said the board could consider that display at its retreat given interpretive challenges.
Action: Oaths of office were administered and officers were elected and sworn. The board approved the listed annual appointments and consent items with certain items severed for separate votes; the transcript indicates motions and approvals but does not print a numerical roll call.
Context: The reorganization session is an annual procedural meeting to seat newly elected trustees and set officer positions before the board proceeds to regular business.
