Business Manager Brett Burditt officially administered the oath of office to re-elected board members Lee Spring and Justin Jutting, along with newly elected member Timothy Amdahl of Piedmont. In a vote of continued confidence, Justin Jutting was re-elected as school board president, with Aaron Odegaard returning as vice president—proving once again that leadership runs on experience (and maybe a little coffee). Thomas Schneller was absent and will be officially administered at the August board meeting.
