Heading into January when board members will likely make decisions on approximately $5.6 million in cuts beginning in the 2010-11 school year, (with the prospect of $4.7 million more for 2011-12), the Santa Rosa School Board has appointed new officers for the upcoming year.

Bill Carle is president, Frank Pugh is vice president and outgoing president Donna Jeye is clerk.

Trustee Tad Wakefield was named voting representative to the Sonoma County Committee on School District Organization. Laura Gonzalez was named alternate.

The board meets next on Jan. 13. Meetings typically begin at 6 p.m. and are held in Santa Rosa City Council Chambers.
