Board appoints Creighton Helms, Kelly Strong and Paul Thompson to budget committee
Summary
After hearing five applicants, the Silver Falls School District board nominated and approved three community members — Creighton Helms, Kelly Strong and Paul Thompson — to serve on the district budget committee.
The board interviewed five applicants for three open seats on the budget committee and then opened nominations and voice votes. Members appointed Creighton Helms (nomination moved and seconded), Kelly Strong and Paul Thompson by unanimous voice votes. Board members praised applicants’ experience and community involvement during the selection discussion.
Applicant Dave Ellison (speaker S18) emphasized experience in student services and federal programs; Paul Thompson (speaker S20) and Jesse Smith (speaker S15) noted local volunteer and governance experience. The board asked administration to follow up with the newly appointed members about meeting schedules and any orientation materials.
