Summary
With two nominating petitions filed for two open seats, the board did not hold an election and confirmed Jay Ryan for a new three‑year term and welcomed Andrea Kypers, who will join the board in July. Outgoing member Kristen Daggets was thanked for 12 years of service.
The Tea Area School District 41‑5 board reported that two nominating petitions were submitted to fill two open school‑board seats, removing the need for a contested election. Business manager announced that Jay Ryan will continue into a new three‑year term and Andrea Kypers will take her seat in July; the board publicly thanked Kristen Daggets for 12 years of service.
The appointment was announced as an administrative update rather than a formal vote; the business manager said both candidates were notified. Board members offered brief remarks of appreciation for Daggets' years on the board. The district did not provide additional details about committee assignments for the newly seated trustee ahead of the July transition.
The board moved on to other agenda items after the announcement.
