Following praise for his leadership and a regional award, the Burke County Board unanimously extended Dr. Mike Swan's contract by one year and approved three additional personal bonus days in a roll-call vote.
Board members praised Dr. Mike Swan's leadership and recognized him as Northwest RESA’s 2027 regional superintendent of the year before voting to extend his contract and approve additional personal days.
Dr. Terry Warup opened the meeting’s recognition, noting the Northwest Regional Education Service Alliance named Dr. Mike Swan the 2027 regional superintendent of the year for leadership and district initiatives.
