Board members discuss 2026 leadership and committee assignments; tentative preferences voiced
Loading...
Summary
During the study session members expressed preferences for 2026 leadership slots and sketched committee assignments; the chair said formal nominations and a vote will occur at the first January board meeting.
The board used its Dec. 18 study session to talk through leadership roles (chair, vice chair, treasurer, clerk) and committee assignments for 2026, with the chair noting the decisions will be formalized at the first board meeting in January.
Several members expressed interest in specific roles: one current vice chair said they are interested in the chair position; Dan expressed interest in treasurer and finance roles; Sally was discussed as a likely treasurer; Mike offered to serve as clerk; others volunteered to serve on committees such as finance advisory, OPEB advisory, teaching and learning, the Minnetonka Foundation, PTO/PTA and special education advisory.
The chair proposed moving toward a tentative consensus and suggested using the January business meeting to formalize nominations. Board members also discussed customary role‑to‑committee placements (for example, treasurer participation in finance advisory and OPEB advisory) and emphasized flexibility: members noted they could swap or cover meetings when calendars conflict.
Next step: the group expects to carry this tentative slate into the January meeting, where nominations and a formal vote will determine 2026 leadership and committee membership.
