Brandy Harty is no longer the school board president in the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District. In a secret ballot that occurred during a short meeting on Monday, the name of Melissa Burnett was nominated for school board president, along with Harty, who has been serving a rocky term as the school board president. The vote went 5-2 for Burnett.
Earlier this year Harty accused three Interior lawmakers of taking bribes for their votes on the state education budget, which went in a manner of which she didn’t approve. Members of the public and the lawmakers demanded an apology from her for her accusation of felony behavior.
The accusation was unfounded and was part of a pattern of irresponsible behavior and outbursts from Harty. Harty remains on the school board, but is no longer the president. Her behavior became the subject of closed-door meetings of the board this past spring, but she managed to retain her seat.
Meredith Maple was elected vice president of the board. Timothy Doran was elected the board treasurer. Bobby Burgess, whose photo was displayed on social media this year in a revealing situation, was elected clerk.
The school board meeting, which was only about a half hour, was streamed on YouTube:
Melissa will make an excellent President of the board and serve all of the borough well.
Bye Brandy. You can go back to watching porn now.
C’mon Anchorage! Get the courage to bounce the entire radical school board!
I’m exempting Dave Donley from my “radical” comment and want him to stay.
