Isaac Pile was elected Vice-President and Travis Beck was elected Secretary.
Beck’s vote was the only unanimous vote of the three elections.
The meeting was the first for interim superintendent Walter Bourke, who replaced Josh Edwards, who resigned in November.
The board and Bourke heard from Charity Mohr about the school system not yet hiring an Agriculture teacher to replace Shalee Bradley, who announced her intent to resign her position at the end of 2023.
Southwestern students returned to the classroom this week without an Ag instructor.
The school board also heard from a community member concerned about a bus driver in the school system that was already involved in one accident and nearly had another one recently.
The board did not have a statement to make on either public comment.
