Huron Board of Education approves consent agenda including 14 hires and three resignations
Summary
The Huron Board of Education voted Oct. 14 to adopt an amended agenda and to approve a consent agenda that included 14 new hires to be covered by the district workers' compensation plan, three resignations, and requests for recognition and a band fundraiser.
The Huron Board of Education on Oct. 14 adopted an amended agenda and approved a consent agenda that added three personnel hires and included 14 total new hires, three resignations and several routine requests.
The board adopted the agenda after the chair noted the additions were new hires to the consent agenda. The board then took a single motion to approve the entire consent package; the motion was seconded and the voice vote carried.
Under the consent agenda the superintendent recommended approval of 14 new hires to be covered by the district's workers' compensation plan; the transcript names three hires added at the meeting: a paraeducator at Madison (Hey Klamu Ta), a paraeducator at Buchanan K‑1 Center (Stephanie Farmer) and a nutrition office employee (Brenda Kaneo). The consent agenda also listed three resignations for board approval: Leah Eddy, administrative assistant at the middle school, effective Oct. 17, with four years of service; Dana Winter, paraeducator in the middle school library, with 24 years of service and an effective date listed as 05/26/2026; and the middle school boys tennis coach (Sawthaw), with one year of service.
The consent packet included a request from the Huron Education Association to be recognized for certified negotiations and a request from James Stucraft for permission to hold a marching band indoor exhibition as a fundraiser (the transcript notes that no passes would be accepted for that event). The board took no separate votes to remove any items for discussion and approved the consent agenda as presented.
The board announced future meeting dates and school calendar items before and after the consent vote; those scheduling items were provided as informational items in the meeting record.
Votes at a glance: The agenda adoption and the consent agenda were approved by voice vote; the transcript records the motion, second and a voice vote of "aye" and the chair declaring the motion carried.
