Burton elected board president; Edna named vice president for 2026–27
Summary
The Raytown Quality Schools board elected Mister Burton as president and Miss Edna as vice president for the 2026–27 year in voice votes after nominations were opened and nominations were closed by motion.
The Raytown Quality Schools Board of Education elected Mister Burton president and Miss Edna vice president for the 2026–27 term during the April 13 meeting. Board members moved to open nominations, heard no additional candidates and used motions to cease nominations; the board adopted the officers by voice vote.
The nominations process began when the board chair asked for nominations for president and then vice president. A motion to cease nominations was made and seconded, and the chair called for a voice vote, which yielded a unanimous affirmation for Burton as president and Edna as vice president.
The election followed routine governance procedures outlined on the agenda; no formal roll-call vote tallies were recorded in the transcript. With officers selected, the board continued with committee reports and its calendar of business for the coming year.
The next procedural step announced by the board was appointment of a delegate and alternate to attend the Missouri School Boards Association 2026 summer summit; Dr. Douglas was named delegate and Cassandra the alternate.
