Board introduces Janie Sorelle as director of facilities; approves personnel slate
Summary
The board welcomed Janie Sorelle as the district's new director of facilities; she said she's "very excited" to join the district. The board also approved personnel as recommended by Superintendent Turpin in a separate motion recorded during the meeting.
The Homer Central School District Board of Education introduced Janie Sorelle as the district's new director of facilities and the board approved personnel recommendations submitted by Superintendent Turpin.
"I feel home. I'm very pleased to be here. Very excited," Sorelle said after board members welcomed her. The board president said Sorelle has worked with the district for just over a week, has met staff and attended a trade show, and that the district's reference checks reflected her experience and communication skills.
Separately, the board moved to approve personnel as recommended by Superintendent Turpin. The transcript records a motion, a second and the board saying "Aye" with some abstentions noted in the spoken record; no roll-call tally with named votes was provided in the excerpt. The board also discussed logistics for staff development and upcoming district events during committee reports.
Sorelle told the board she had worked in education at Syracuse University and said she was "excited to be back and doing it all for the students." Board members expressed appreciation and asked informal onboarding questions (including a lighthearted exchange about food preferences).
