Board Members Needed
Over the past several months we have been informing you that we are looking for additional board members because we were losing two members due to term limits. That has now become a reality. At the June board meeting, Jim Moe and Glenn Hofer fulfilled their maximum terms permitted under our Policy Governance. We are back down to five members with two more members scheduled to leave next June. The maximum board size is nine and at the very least we need to add two new members to replace those who can no longer serve. We are asking that you prayerfully consider serving on the Bethany Academy School Board. If you have any questions on the Board or what is required to become a member you can contact me at (952) 881-6081 or jjrobertson@hirep.net.
We also extend our thanks to Jim Moe and Glenn Hofer for their 6 years of service on the board. Jim was a driving force in getting our Policy Governance Model off the ground and keeping us accountable for following those policies. As Secretary, Jim recorded all the motions, votes and action items and made sure the monthly minutes and Policy Governance Manual were up to date. Glenn served on the Joint Building Committee and was the official timekeeper of the board meetings making sure we stayed on subject and time. Glenn was a steady hand on the board always bringing us back to what was important. Most importantly, both Jim and Glenn are godly men who always sought what was best for Bethany Academy instead of what might be better for them personally.
Both Jim and Glenn gave sacrificially of their time and talents and they will be missed. If you see Jim or Glenn make sure you thank them for their service.
(JR) James Robertson
Board President
