School Board Approves Summer Hiring and Curriculum Overview for Health Education

The MSAD52 Board of Directors convened on May 29, 2025, to address several key topics, including personnel nominations and updates on the health and physical education curriculum.

During the meeting, the board collectively approved a consent agenda that included multiple instructional nominations for teaching positions across various schools. These nominations were pending certification and included roles such as a second-grade teacher at Lead Central School and a physical education teacher at Turner Primary School. Additionally, the board authorized the superintendent to offer contracts and hire staff during the summer months.

The financial committee presented recommendations that were also approved, including the immediate purchase of three vans with deferred payment until July 1, 2025, and a district-wide copy purchase.

In new business, the assistant superintendent provided an overview of the health and physical education curriculum, which is set to be voted on in the next meeting. The presentation highlighted the timeline of the curriculum development process from August 2024 to May 2025, detailing the collaborative efforts of teachers across grade levels to review and revise educational standards.

The meeting concluded without any old business being discussed, and the board looks forward to further developments in the upcoming sessions.
