Mahomet‑Seymour CUSD 3 board elects Jordan Rock president, confirms officers and routine appointments
Summary
At its May 4 organizational meeting, the Mahomet‑Seymour CUSD 3 Board of Education elected Jordan Rock president by acclamation, confirmed Sunny McMurray as vice president and Kyle Jordan as secretary, appointed Sharon Hanlon treasurer, designated UC Bank as depository, authorized outside counsel and moved to closed session.
The Mahomet‑Seymour Community Unit School District 3 Board of Education, meeting May 4, elected Jordan Rock as board president by acclamation and completed a slate of routine organizational actions, including officer confirmations, financial designations and an authorization for the superintendent to use outside legal counsel.
Nominations opened for board president during the organizational meeting and a board member nominated Jordan Rock; with no other nominations the presiding officer declared, “Jordan Rock being the only candidate nominated for the office of president, the chair hereby declares him elected by acclamation and directs the secretary to so record in the minutes.” The board then confirmed Sunny McMurray as vice president and Kyle Jordan as secretary, each by acclamation after receiving single nominations.
The board also approved routine administrative appointments. Sharon Hanlon was appointed district treasurer after a motion, second and roll-call approval. The board voted to approve a proposed meeting schedule (regular meetings at 6:30 p.m. in the Administrative Center boardroom) and to designate UC Bank as the district depository. The board confirmed that Sarah Guerrero will continue to serve as board recorder.
On personnel and operations matters, the board authorized the superintendent to utilize outside law firms at his discretion; the firm names were read aloud during the meeting but the transcript’s spelling of those firms is unclear. The board also approved a motion appointing the superintendent to serve as the hearing officer for student-discipline matters.
Before adjourning to closed session, the board moved to enter closed session to consider appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance or dismissal of specific employees; safety and security procedures; individual student matters; and collective bargaining. The board completed a roll call and did not return to the live feed after closing.
The actions taken at this organizational meeting set the board’s leadership and administrative framework for the coming term. The board’s next public meeting dates were approved as part of the schedule adopted at this session.
