Votes at a glance: board records unanimous acceptance of monitoring reports and renames former Whittemore Park Middle School
Summary
At a special call meeting following an executive session, the Horry County Schools board unanimously accepted OE‑6 (financial administration) and R8 (perceptions and stakeholders) monitoring reports as in compliance and voted unanimously to rename the former Whittemore Park Middle School the 'Horry County Schools Rivertown Complex.'
After returning from executive session, the Horry County Schools board convened a special call meeting to record several formal actions.
- OE‑6 (Financial Administration): The board accepted the quarterly financial/annual OE‑6 monitoring report following Mr. Gardner’s presentation. An auditor’s 'unmodified opinion' on the annual comprehensive financial report was reported by district staff. The motion to accept OE‑6 was recorded as unanimous; no roll‑call vote or individual vote names were recorded in the transcript.
- R8 (Perceptions and Stakeholders): The board voted unanimously to accept monitoring report R8 (perceptions and stakeholders) as in compliance. During discussion a board member noted a 9.8% three‑year decline in a teacher‑response metric about enforcement of rules and urged corrective attention.
- Renaming of former Whittemore Park Middle School: Mr. Birch moved and Mr. Davis seconded a motion to rename the facility to 'Horry County Schools Rivertown Complex.' The motion passed by unanimous voice vote.
The board also approved a consent agenda and adjourned. The transcript records the votes as unanimous but does not provide individual roll‑call tallies or a numerical yes/no count; board members stated that no votes or decisions were taken during executive session.
