Bibb County school board approves 2025–26 hires, holds executive session on personnel
Summary
The Bibb County Regular School District board approved a slate of hires and resignations for the 2025–26 school year, reviewed principal-recommended reassignments and held a roughly 20-minute executive session to discuss personnel.
The Bibb County Regular School District board approved multiple personnel actions for the 2025–26 school year and held an executive session to discuss personnel during its meeting.
The superintendent recommended approval of new hires, summer staff and a resignation, and the board voted to accept those recommendations. The personnel approvals included certified and classified hires, coaches and summer program staff that the district says will staff classrooms and extracurricular programs next school year.
Approved hires included Lisonbee Wallace as a physical education teacher at Centerville Middle School (effective 2025–26), Evan Sadberry as a part-time Child Nutrition Program worker at West Lawton Elementary School (effective 2025–26), Kendra Babb as a part‑time Child Nutrition Program worker at West Lawton High School (effective 2025–26) and Ivy Moreland as head volleyball coach at Bibb County High School. The board also approved summer school teachers for Bibb County High School (Melinda Collins, Cara Hudson, David Steele, Erin Tinker, Blake Cook), Centerville Middle School (Delilah Williams, Katrina Ross) and West Lawton High School (Brent Buckner).
The board approved staff for summer math/reading camps and specialists, naming Tasha Hamilton and Ryan Phelps as specialists at Brent Elementary School and a slate of teachers including Shalanda Steele, Crystal Hendricks and others. The district also approved CNP summer workers including Missy Booth, Amanda Harrell, Regina Thomas, Amy Phillips, Viola Howard, Lindsay Hessler, Candace Martin, Deborah Smith Wirong and Sherry Finley.
The board accepted the resignation of Matt Huey as assistant middle school baseball coach at Centerville Middle School, effective May 12, 2025. The superintendent recommended, and the board approved, the employment of Noah Wilder as a physical education teacher at Woodstock Elementary School for the 2025–26 school year.
Separately, the superintendent, based on school principals’ recommendations, presented a set of reassignments for the 2025–26 school year as an information item. Those reassignments include multiple grade-level and specialist moves at West Blanton Elementary School and Woodstock Elementary School (for example, Ashton Hobson from third-grade to first-grade and Jessica Hicks from first-grade to pre-K); the board treated these as informational rather than action items at this meeting.
Board members moved into a roughly 20-minute executive session “to discuss personnel,” then moved out and resumed regular business. The motions to enter and exit executive session were made and approved on the meeting record. The board scheduled its next work session and meeting during the meeting’s closing announcements.
The superintendent and board did not provide additional public details about items discussed in executive session beyond the personnel subject noted on the record.
