Board approves new Landrum football coach, retirements, resignations and hires for 2025–26
Summary
The board approved the hiring of Mikey Reed as head football coach at Landrum High School and accepted listed retirements, resignations and personnel assignments for the 2025–26 school year. Several resignations represent internal moves and will be followed by approvals of newly posted positions.
The board approved multiple personnel actions on Tuesday, including hiring Mikey Reed as head football coach at Landrum High School and routine personnel items in the district packet.
Recommendation and hire: Dr. Beeson recommended Mikey Reed following a multi‑stage hiring process. “The first thing out of this man's lip was, I love my wife and I love my children,” Dr. Beeson said of the finalist during the presentation. Trustees moved and seconded the recommendation; the board voted unanimously to approve Reed as Landrum’s head football coach.
Other personnel actions: Trustees approved listed retirements and resignations effective at the end of the 2024–25 school year and approved new hires and administrative employments (assistant principals and academic coaches) for 2025–26. Administration said several resignations result from employees accepting different positions in the district; those moves were being processed as a retirement/resignation from the prior position and subsequent hire into the new role.
What the board did: All personnel items presented in the personnel packet were approved by unanimous voice vote. Administration said it had taken steps to absorb several recent resignations without increasing class sizes.
What’s next: Administration will finalize employment paperwork and present any additional position approvals in the June meeting packet.
