Hardy County Board swears in members, closes nominations and elects officers
Summary
At its meeting, the Hardy County Board of Education administered oaths to new members, closed nominations for board president and vice president, and approved routine consent items including a library-board reappointment.
Roy Harper and Iose Rose were sworn in as members of the Hardy County Board of Education at the start of the meeting. The oath, administered at the opening of the session, affirmed support for the U.S. and West Virginia constitutions and the duty to "faithfully discharge the duties of member of the Hardy County Board of Education."
The board then moved to nominations for officers. Nominations for president were closed by motion and a roll-call-style affirmation was recorded with five votes in favor. Melvin Ship was nominated and confirmed as vice president after nominations were closed. The board discussed committee appointments and representation on county bodies including the School Board Association, Hardy County Parks and Recreation and Hardy County Child Care; several members agreed to continue on standing committees and staff said they would verify County Commission-appointed representative timelines.
There were no public comments. The board approved the consent agenda and later approved the reappointment of Beverly Baker to the library board after brief discussion about the board's role in selecting a representative. The meeting concluded with routine announcements and an adjournment at about 5:57 p.m. The next regular meeting was announced for July 15, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. at the board office.
