Summary

Hermiston School District 8 board voted to endorse Nicole Schott for the OSBA board (Gorge Region) and Jose Aparicio for the OSBA Legislative Policy Committee (Gorge Region); Mr. Diaz will cast the district's official OSBA ballot.

During the action-items portion of the Nov. 17 meeting, board members nominated and endorsed two regional candidates for the Oregon School Boards Association (OSBA). A motion to endorse Nicole Schott for the Gorge Region OSBA board of directors was made, seconded and carried by raised hands; board members then endorsed Jose Aparicio for the OSBA Legislative Policy Committee seat (the latter seat had a single candidate).

Board staff said the district's official votes for these OSBA positions will be cast by Mr. Diaz as part of the Gorge Region's combined member-district voting process. The endorsements were procedural, recorded by motion and passed with no recorded opposition.
