Worthington board holds public hearing on rehiring notice for teacher Brian Brown; no comments received
Summary
Under Ohio law the board held a public hearing on the proposed reemployment of teacher Brian Brown and took the matter under advisement; state law requires at least 15 days before action and the board plans to take action at its June 9 meeting.
The Worthington Schools Board of Education on May 12 held the public hearing required by Ohio law on the possible reemployment of teacher Brian Brown to the same position after retirement. The board received no public comment and took the matter under advisement; state law requires at least 15 days before the board may act.
Why it matters: Ohio Revised Code Section 3307.353 (read during the meeting) requires a public meeting when a retired employee is being considered for reemployment to the same position. The board must wait at least 15 days after the hearing before voting.
What happened: Board President Kelly Davis read the statutory notice and opened the hearing. "On 04/04/2025, the board gave notice of the possible reemployment of Brian Brown, a teacher," she said. After a pause and hearing no comments, Davis said, "state law prohibits the board from taking action on this matter for at least 15 days. Therefore, the board takes this matter under advisement and will take action on the issue at its meeting on 06/09/2025." No public speakers addressed the hearing.
What's next: The board will consider formal action on the reemployment of Brian Brown at its June 9, 2025 meeting.
