Gainesville ISD trustees sworn in; officers elected
Summary
Newly elected trustees Pamela Clegg, Marvin Royal and Dan Doss were sworn in; trustees elected Corey Hardin president, Marvin Royal vice president and Nathan Dempsey secretary, with all reorganization votes passing unanimously.
Corey Hardin, board president, called the Gainesville Independent School District Board of Trustees meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. on May 19, 2026, and the board administered the Oath of Office to newly elected trustees Pamela Clegg, Marvin Royal and Dan Doss.
Edwina Barnes, Notary Public, performed the oath. Following the swearing-in, trustees reorganized leadership for the coming year. Marvin Royal moved to nominate Corey Hardin as board president; the motion carried 6-0. Laura Otts nominated Marvin Royal for vice president; that motion also passed 6-0. Laura Otts later nominated Nathan Dempsey for secretary; the motion carried 6-0.
The officer elections were conducted during the early portion of the meeting before Nathan Dempsey's arrival at 5:09 p.m., which explains the 6-0 tallies recorded for those votes. The reorganization concluded with the board prepared to continue regular business and committee reports.
