Tom Bean ISD board certifies election, swears in trustees and reorganizes leadership
Summary
The board certified the recent election, swore in Colten Miller and Billy McCoy, and reorganized its officers, appointing James Hamilton president, Shawna Merriman vice president and Beth Hale secretary. All reorganization motions passed with five yeas, zero opposed and one absent.
President James Hamilton certified the election results and declared Colten Miller, Billy McCoy and Tom Sharp elected to three‑year terms on the Tom Bean Independent School District Board of Trustees. Beth Hale then administered the oath of office to Colten Miller and Billy McCoy, seating them as trustees.
The board moved immediately to reorganize. "Motion by Beth Hale that James Hamilton serve as the President of the Board of Trustees," was seconded by Steve Rogers and carried with five in favor, zero opposed and one absent. Subsequent motions installed Shawna Merriman as vice president and Beth Hale as secretary; each motion passed with the same 5–0–1 tally.
The reorganization vote totals were recorded on the minutes: motions carried 5 in favor, 0 opposed and 1 absent (Tom Sharp). The board did not take public comment during the meeting's public forum following the reorganization. The new leadership team will serve until the board's next reorganization or as required by district policy.
