Selah School District begins interviews for junior student board representatives

At its Sept. 10 study session, the Selah School District board began interviewing junior students from Selah High School to serve two-year terms as junior student board representatives, the chair said.

The chair opened the meeting, noted one member was attending remotely and led the flag salute, then described the session’s single goal: "to interview junior student board representatives, students at Selah High School who are current juniors who would start a 2 year commitment to be board representatives, here, in in our meetings." The chair said the role is important and thanked the applicants before adjourning. The board said it expects to announce results in the next couple of days.

The session was a study session rather than a regular business meeting; there were no motions or formal votes on the record during the portion of the meeting in the transcript. The chair also indicated a brief procedural pause to return to a participant named Larry before concluding the interviews and closing the session.

The interviews will determine which juniors serve as student voice representatives on the board for two academic years. The district did not specify the number of openings or details about the selection criteria in the recorded remarks; those details were not specified in the transcript.
