Lostant CUSD 425 board re‑elects Greg Ruff as president, sets 2025–26 meeting calendar
Summary
At the April 30 reorganization meeting, the Lostant Community Unit School District #425 Board of Education re‑elected Greg Ruff as president, named Bob Lawless vice president and Lisa Cooper secretary, and adopted a July 2025–June 2026 meeting calendar with 6 p.m. starts.
Greg Ruff was re‑elected president of the Lostant Community Unit School District #425 Board of Education during the board’s April 30 reorganization meeting; Bob Lawless was elected vice‑president and Lisa Cooper was elected secretary.
The board appointed the superintendent to serve as president pro‑tem for the reorganization proceedings and then adopted the regular meeting calendar for July 2025–June 2026, with meetings to begin at 6 p.m. The calendar was approved by a roll‑call vote recorded as Yea: Ruff, Cooper, Lawless, Mertel.
The board also appointed Lisa Cooper as the district’s IASB Governing Board Representative. The minutes show that appointments to standing committees (Finance, Safety, Negotiations) were tabled for later action. Attendance entries in the minutes contain inconsistencies between who was listed as present and who was listed as absent; the roll‑call votes in the minutes, however, were recorded as four yeas on the motions noted above.
The reorganization actions took place immediately after the prior board adjourned 'sine die' and followed the seating and oath of newly elected members earlier in the meeting.
