cooperative educational services of a supervisory district shall meet
upon the direction of the commissioner of education, at a time and place
designated by the commissioner, for the purpose of appointing a district
superintendent of schools whenever a vacancy in such office shall occur,

superintendent of schools who shall serve until the board of cooperative
educational services shall fill such vacancy.
2. In the appointment of such district superintendent the vote shall
be by ballot and the person receiving a majority of all votes cast shall
be appointed subject to the approval of the commissioner of education.
Each member of the board of cooperative educational services shall be
entitled to one vote in such appointment.
3. The clerk of such board shall file a copy of the proceedings of
each such meeting and each such appointment, certified by himself and
the president, in the office of the clerk of the county in which such
meeting or appointment takes place and with the commissioner of
education within five days after the close thereof.
