Monroe‑Woodbury board appoints two trustees, approves personnel and financial items

The Monroe‑Woodbury Central School District Board of Education on Feb. 4 formally appointed and swore in two new trustees and approved a slate of routine business and personnel items before adjourning the public portion of the meeting to an executive session on personnel.

The board voted to approve the revised agenda and then moved to confirm the appointments of the two trustees named during remarks as Monique and Brian. The newly appointed trustees were administered the oath of office at the meeting, with the oath recited aloud by meeting participants.

The board also approved minutes from the Jan. 7 regular meeting and the Jan. 21 special meeting. Later in the meeting the board approved personnel items 10.1 through 10.16 and business and financial items 11.1 through 11.9 by voice vote. A separate motion approved the committees on special education and preschool education item.

Officials recorded the approvals by voice vote; the meeting transcript documents the presiding officer asking “All in favor?” followed by vocal “Aye” responses. No roll‑call tallies or individual vote counts were recorded in the public transcript.

After completing the public agenda, the board made and approved a motion “to adjourn the public portion of the meeting to an executive session to discuss personnel,” which carried on a voice vote.

Actions recorded in the public portion included motions to approve the revised agenda; the appointment and swearing in of two trustees; approval of prior meeting minutes; approval of personnel and business/financial items; and the motion to move into executive session. The transcript does not list individual vote counts or identify every mover or seconder by full name in the public record.
