Phil Wiesner elected board chair; Derek Foxworth chosen as vice chair
Summary
The Silver Falls School District board reselected Phil Wiesner as chair and elected Derek Foxworth vice chair in voice votes. Board members praised continuity of leadership and Foxworth's work on personnel and the superintendent evaluation.
The Silver Falls School District board re-elected Phil Wiesner as chair and selected Derek Foxworth as vice chair during the meeting. The body conducted voice votes after nominations and brief remarks supporting the two candidates.
A board member who nominated Wiesner told the board, "I think you've done a fantastic job this last year. I think continuity of leadership is important for us for this next year." Another member nominated Derek Foxworth for vice chair and noted his work on personnel policy and the superintendent evaluation. The chair called for voice votes and announced the motions carried.
The leadership votes were handled under the board's stated nomination process: no second required for nominations, followed by roll-call-style announcements of support until a candidate reached the four-vote threshold described by the board.
The board moved promptly to other agenda items after the elections. No roll-call tallies with member-by-name votes were recorded in the transcript; outcomes were announced by voice as passed.
