    History keeps repeating itself and the South Glens Falls school District continues to get hammered. Mrs. Philo was elected a second time for the BOE VP seat, during the July 21st, regularly schedule meeting.  The first election was deemed null and void after it was found the first election, conducted by secret ballot, was illegal.

 

 

Pub. Off. Law 87(3)(a) requires that records of votes must include the final vote of each board member on every matter voted on.  It further notes that "Secret ballots are not allowed for any purpose (Smithson v. Illion Housing Auth, 130 A.D.2d 965 (4th Dep't 1988)........not even at a board's organizational/reorganizational meeting regarding the election of board President and Vice-President and other officers."

 

 

One would expect, someone on the board would have been aware of this rule, at the very least our Superintendent, Dr. McCarthy. Instead, the illegal practice was uncovered during a NYSSBA, BOE training session.

    Dr. McCarthy explains……


"A Board of Education member's fiduciary responsibilities are advisory; to approve or disapprove the financial documents produced by those charged with fiscal duties:  the district Business Manager, District Treasurer and staff.  It is not the responsibility of a BOE member to organize, analyze and sort such information"
