Ohio County Board of Education elects David Croft president and names Andy Garber vice president
Summary
At its July 6 meeting the Ohio County Board of Education elected David Croft president for a two-year term and amended the motion to name Andy Garber vice president; the nominations passed by voice vote unanimously. The board also tabled an agenda item on Wheeling Park High School tennis courts.
The Ohio County Board of Education elected David Croft president for a two-year term and amended the nomination to name Andy Garber vice president during its July 6, 2026 meeting at the board office.
A board member nominated David Croft, saying, "I'd like to nominate David Croft, president of the High County Board of Education for the next 2 years." The nomination was seconded. A subsequent request to amend the nomination "to include mister Garber as vice president" was made and seconded. The presiding officer called for a voice vote; board members responded "Aye," and the presiding officer stated, "Motion passes unanimously."
The election followed a brief administrative note that oaths of office had already been administered earlier; the board member who spoke said that under West Virginia state code the board was required to elect a president for the next two years. The nominations and amendment were resolved by voice vote rather than a roll-call tally recorded in the transcript.
The board did not record a roll-call vote in the meeting transcript; the presiding officer announced the outcome as unanimous approval. No additional conditions or amendments to duties were recorded at the meeting.
The meeting also included routine calendar items and ended with announcements of upcoming meetings. The board is scheduled to meet again on Monday, July 13, 2026, at 6 p.m. at the board office, and again on Monday, July 27, 2026, at the board office.
