Seventh district member Shaun Tubbs has been re-elected Chairman of the DeKalb County Board of Education.

During Thursday night’s regular monthly meeting, Tubbs was again selected by his fellow board members to serve as chairman for the next twelve months. This will be Tubbs’ fourth year as Chairman.

Meanwhile, third district member Jim Beshearse was re-elected Vice Chairman of the Board while Sixth district member Jason Miller will again serve as the board’s Tennessee Legislative Network (TLN) representative.

The board re-organizes each September electing officers to serve for the year. It was the first meeting for Fifth district member Megan Moore who was elected last month.

In other business, Director of Schools Patrick Cripps announced in his monthly personnel report that Caitlin Fox has been granted a leave of absence as requested.
