School Board Returns Moiso as President, Picks Oves as VP

In a vote among their peers on Thursday, Brenda Moiso was selected to return as president of the Ocean City Board of Education, and Tom Oves was chosen as vice president.

The pair will serve until the next board reorganization meeting in January 2013.

Oves succeeds H. James Bauer as vice president of the board. Oves and Bauer were each nominated as president, but each declined his nomination, leaving Moiso as the only candidate.

Lloyd Hayes was the only board member to cast a "no" vote for Moiso.

The meeting also included the swearing in of Bauer (seventh term), Oves (second term), Jacqueline McAlister (first term) and Tiffany Prettyman (completing two years of an unexpired term) as board members starting new terms. The board members were successful in the November election.

Bauer, Oves and McAlister are starting new three-year terms. The reorganization was part of a public meeting Thursday evening at Ocean City High School.
