Board approves personnel report; names Brian Scoggins assistant principal and accepts longtime staff retirement

The School City of Mishawaka Board of School Trustees approved a personnel report Sept. 10 that covered new hires, extra‑duty assignments and a retirement.

Human resources presenter Mr. Lebonne said the report recommended appointment of eight certified and 22 classified positions, 17 extra‑duty assignments and three volunteer recommendations, as well as summer‑school programming items. The report also named Brian Scoggins as assistant principal at Mishawaka High School; the board had previously approved an intent to employ and the appointment was finalized.

The personnel report recorded the retirement of Susan Long, a 24‑year employee in the food‑services department who served as head cashier at John Young; the district expressed gratitude for her service. The board moved, seconded and approved the personnel report by voice vote; no roll‑call votes by name were recorded in the meeting transcript.

Additional employment approvals were presented pursuant to Indiana code and approved by the board during the meeting.
