The Rowan County School Board has recently announced the appointment of two new board members to serve in key positions within the board. These new additions of Megan Boone and Gabriel Schadle bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the table, ensuring the continued success and growth of the school district.
With a commitment to excellence in education, the Rowan County School Board conducted a process to identify individuals who share the board's vision for student achievement and academic excellence. The newly elected board members are poised to make significant contributions to the development and implementation of policies that enhance the overall educational experience for students in the district.
The addition of new board members underscores the board's dedication to fostering a collaborative and innovative learning environment within Rowan County. These individuals will work closely with existing board members, administrators, teachers, parents, and the community to shape the future direction of education in the district.
"We are thrilled to welcome our new board members to the Rowan County School Board. Their diverse backgrounds and perspectives will be invaluable assets as we work together to provide a world-class education for all students in our district,"
The Rowan County School Board remains committed to prioritizing student success and academic achievement, and the election of new board members signals a new chapter in the continued growth and advancement of the district. The board looks forward to the fresh ideas and perspectives that the new members will bring to the table as they collaborate on key decisions that impact the education of students in Rowan County.
Both will be sworn in as new board members at the special called board meeting
on August 13, 2024.
