The Lake Wales Charter Schools Board on May 29 approved the superintendent’s recommendation to confirm Miss Speed as the permanent principal of Bok North.

Superintendent Ricky presented Miss Speed as the selection and asked trustees to confirm the appointment. A motion to confirm Miss Speed as Bok North principal was moved by Trustee Lynn, seconded by Rafael, and approved by voice vote.

Why it matters: The appointment fills a campus leadership position before the upcoming school year and appears intended to provide continuity for staff and students.

Discussion vs. decision: Trustees treated the item as a confirmation; the board’s vote was the formal action that finalized the appointment.

What’s next: The district will update personnel records and public communications to reflect the permanent principal appointment.
