Ringgold SD held a reorganization segment in which newly elected board members were sworn in and the board elected interim leadership by roll call. Board member Paul Maliki was among those who repeated the oath and signed election paperwork, and the board proceeded to fill officer positions.
The clerk led a group oath for those being sworn in. One of the new members stated his name aloud during the oath: "I, Paul Maliki," and later repeated the commitment, "And that I will discharge the duties of my office with fidelity." The clerk instructed members to sign certificates after taking the oath.
Members then debated and agreed on how to run the officer elections. One speaker explained the traditional approach—nominating a candidate, requiring a majority for that nominee before moving to subsequent nominations—while another described an alternate method that would collect a single vote per member among multiple nominees. The board agreed to follow the proposed voting format for the reorganization vote.
Nominations were opened for temporary board president. A nomination for Carl was made; with no additional nominations, the body proceeded to a roll-call vote. The clerk called roll and members announced their choices aloud. The clerk announced the result of the president election: "Jason got 5 votes. Missus Sacca got 4." The clerk then recognized the successful candidate.
The board moved on to select vice-presidential representation. Members named candidates and cast votes; the clerk announced, "Carol got 5 votes." Subsequent discussion indicated there were tied or unclear results for other positions, and at least one member raised a potential conflict of interest because of a personal relationship to students at a partnering school. A motion to table that specific liaison question was suggested to allow further consideration.
The reorganization portion concluded and the board moved on to the next agenda item. When the chair asked, "The next bill, David?" a member initiated the next procedural vote, and members responded with assent.
The meeting transcript supplies first names and some full names as spoken at the meeting (for example, Paul Maliki). Several roll-call responses were recorded as single names; where only a first name or honorific and given name appears in the record, the article uses those names without adding surnames or titles not present in the transcript.
