BOZEMAN — The Gallatin County Superintendent of Schools has appointed Lisa Weaver to fill the vacant trustee position on the Bozeman School District Board of Trustees.

Earlier today, Superintendent Matthew Henry notified the Bozeman School District that he has appointed Lisa Weaver to fill the vacant trustee position. The appointment is effective immediately and Weaver will fill the seat until the next regular school district election on May 3, 2022. See the full notification of the appointment letter here.
The Gallatin County Superintendent of Schools learned in May that a vacancy was created on the Bozeman School District No. 7 Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees did not fill the vacancy within 60 days of its occurrence. Thus, Montana law provides that the Gallatin County Superintendent of Schools shall make the appointment to fill the vacant position.
Superintendent Henry sought applications for the open position. Six applicants were interviewed on June 11 by SuperHenry, and feedback was given by a focus group of 14 people representing interests in the community, including seven members from the Bozeman School District.
