Description:
Minnesota Statute requires the School Board to elect its officers for the new calendar year on the first Monday in January (or as soon thereafter as practicable).
After the roll call is taken, an "Acting Chair" (as selected by the Board - typically the previous Chair if "still" on the Board) will request nominations for each officer position of the Board. Parliamentary procedure does not require a nomination to be seconded. Nominations are solicited by asking (three times) for nominations from the floor for each officer position of the Board. After all nominations are heard, the Acting Chair will announce that "nominations are closed" and a vote will be taken by requesting "those in favor of ______________ for each officer position of the Board signify by saying "aye" - those opposed signify by saying the same sign "aye". The candidate with the highest vote total shall be elected to the office. After the Chair election, the newly elected Chair of the Board shall preside over the nominations and election of the other school board officers. |
