North Allegheny SD reorganizes board; Warner chosen president, Hardy elected vice president (6–3)
Summary
At its Dec. 3 reorganization meeting, the North Allegheny School District board administered oaths to new directors, elected Missus Warner as president and Miss Hardy as vice president (vice president vote 6–3), appointed AW Beatty representatives, and assigned committee duties for the year.
The North Allegheny School District held its annual reorganization meeting Dec. 3, administering oaths to newly elected directors and electing its board leadership for the coming year. Missus Warner was elected president by roll call vote, and Miss Hardy won the vice presidency by a 6–3 vote.
The clerk administered the oath of office to the newly sworn directors, including Jesse Adams, who recited his oath as directed by the clerk. After the oath, the board opened nominations for a temporary president; Doctor Gibbs nominated Missus Blackburn and the board approved her by voice vote to serve as temporary chair while elections were conducted.
During nominations for president, Miss Hardy nominated Missus Warner. The board moved to close nominations (moved by Doctor Gibbs and seconded by Miss Hardy) and conducted a roll call. The transcript records multiple "Aye" responses and congratulations for Missus Warner’s election; a numerical tally for the presidency is not specified in the transcript.
Nominations for vice president included Doctor Gibbs’s nomination of Miss Hardy and a nomination for Mister Weniger. After nominations were closed, a roll call vote produced a 6–3 result in favor of Miss Hardy. The transcript lists the order of calls and individual votes during the roll call: six members voted for Miss Hardy and three voted for Mister Weniger; the clerk announced the 6–3 result.
The meeting also addressed appointments and committee assignments. The board voted to appoint Missus Blackburn and Missus Warner as the district's two representatives to the AW Beatty Career Center, with other board members designated as alternates. The board assigned standing report responsibilities and committee liaisons for the year: construction projects and the finance report to Mister Weniger; curriculum to Miss Hardy; human resources to Doctor Gibbs; technology services to Doctor Shaw; property and supplies to Missus Light; school board matters to Missus Thayes; student services to Missus Blackburn; student activities to Miss Pagnato and Miss Lynn; and the superintendent’s report to Doctor Hyland. Committee representation assignments (citizens advisory committee, AIU representative, North Allegheny Foundation, legislative report) were likewise confirmed with listed primaries and alternates.
Vice President Miss Hardy thanked colleagues and family following her election, saying, "I just wanted to thank you so much to the board for electing me to this position this year." The board adjourned after completing the reorganization agenda.
What happens next: The newly constituted board will proceed with its regular business under the newly elected leadership and the assigned committee liaisons; no regular legislative business was taken up at this meeting.
