SCHOOL BOARD REORGINIZATIONAL MEETING

The Lockport US&J reports....

ROY-HART: Riegle returns as school board president; Bragg is vice president

Patricia Riegle will return as the president of the Royalton-Hartland Board of Education and Daniel Bragg will serve as vice president for the 2008-09 school year, after the two were elected by the board Tuesday night at the school district’s reorganizational meeting. Also, new board member Keith Bond was sworn in. Jeffrey Waters, another new board member, was not present at Tuesday’s meeting but was sworn in at an earlier school board meeting last month.

In other board action, members approved membership for the New York State School Board Association and the Rural School Boards Association. There was some discussion among board members about joining the associations, especially the Rural Schools. Superintendent Paul Bona said there was a benefit to being a member of the Rural Schools, as it provided information about educational programs that help out rural school districts academically. “If Paul says he sees value in it, then I’m all right with it,” said board member Joseph Czach.
