The Allamakee Community School District (ACSD) Board of Directors met Friday morning, September 6 for a special meeting to appoint a new school board member to fill the At-Large seat on the board being vacated by long-time ACSD board member Al Rissman, who submitted his resignation from that position at the board’s regular August meeting. Petitions from two individuals were received by the school district for potential appointment to the board, Tim Smedsrud and Jesse Delaney.

The board members voted to appoint Jesse Delaney to fill out the remainder of Rissman’s term, which expires at the end of 2025. Delaney is scheduled to take the Oath of Office at the next regular board meeting, which is scheduled for Monday, September 16.
