VOTING METHOD AT SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS
All voting of the Board shall be by voice or roll call. On split votes, the votes of all Board members, including abstentions, shall be recorded in the minutes.

While it is the duty of a member who has an opinion on the question to express it by voting, any member may abstain from voting for cause, however the effect is the same as if said member voted on the prevailing side. Members may request that an explanation of their vote be recorded in the minutes.
