Sheldon ISD board elects officers and swears in newly elected trustee
The Sheldon ISD Board of Trustees completed a leadership reorganization at its December meeting, administering an oath of office to a newly elected official and voting to install new board officers amid several competing nominations.

Patricia Roche took the oath of office during the meeting when she recited the standard public office oath: "I, Patricia Roche, do solemnly swear..." (transcript). Shortly afterward, members conducted nominations and votes to select board officers. Multiple nominations and at least two competing motions were placed on the floor for combinations of president, vice president and secretary. After discussion and procedural motions, the board voted to install Patricia Archie as board president and completed votes for vice president and secretary. The transcript records at least one recorded tally of "Motion passed" with a 6–1 vote; the transcript does not consistently map every tally to a single named motion.

Trustee Darius Provost Evans, introduced himself as the newly elected trustee for position No. 3 and told the board: "I'm the trustee for position number 3 ... here to provide oversight and accountability" and referenced serving roughly "11,000 children and the more coming, the 1,800 employees," language he used to describe the scale of district responsibilities.

Before adjourning to closed session, the board President announced the meeting would recess to discuss items permitted under the Texas Government Code, citing sections 551.072 and 551.074 for real‑property and personnel/security discussions. The meeting then moved forward with the reorganization vote sequence: several motions were made, some were withdrawn, and final votes were taken to confirm the new officers. The transcript records the board’s procedural steps but does not include a roll‑call vote list by trustee name for each officer selection.
