The Ballard County Board of Education unanimously selected Ben Stewart to fill the District 3 Board seat during its Jan. 13, 2025, meeting in Barlow. The motion to appoint Stewart was made by Ivey Rollings and seconded by Cathy Drummond; the minutes record that the board approved the selection unanimously but do not list individual vote tallies.
The board also voted unanimously to set its 2025 officers. Cathy Drummond moved and Ivey Rollings seconded the motion to elect Kim Morris as chairperson, Tammy Dennis as vice-chairperson, Casey Allen as secretary and Jennifer Head as treasurer. The minutes record the officer slate as approved without recording individual board member votes.
Why it matters: Filling the District 3 seat restores the board’s full membership and the officer elections set leadership roles and committee assignments for the year ahead. The board’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Feb. 10, 2025, at 6:00 p.m.
Details: The board’s minutes list the superintendent and six board members as present. The minutes state the board “unanimously approved” both the appointment and the officer slate; they do not provide a roll-call of individual yes/no votes. The appointment and officer selections were recorded as formal actions (motions recorded with mover and seconder).
