Summary

The board accepted a routine but lengthy August personnel report, noted two recent openings and a reclassification pending certification for Matt Jansen; one board member abstained from the vote.

The Slanko School District Board on Aug. 4 approved a personnel report that included resignations, hires, a sabbatical and extracurricular appointments.

Staff summarized key items: Mister Patterson resigned as assistant principal at Smith Middle School; Matt Jansen moved into an administrative role as dean of students pending certification and is expected to be later reclassified under Act 93 when his certification is received; a replacement physical-education teacher has been named to fill Jansen’s classroom role. The report also listed at least two recent openings that staff said they are actively interviewing to fill and noted a sabbatical leave among administrative items.

The board approved the personnel report by voice vote; Mister Chubb registered an abstention on the motion. Board members welcomed the incoming administrator and expressed appreciation for departing staff.

Why it matters: personnel changes affect school leadership, classroom staffing and extracurricular supervision heading into the school year.

Details: staff said all but two positions were filled as of the prior Thursday and that hiring remains in process for the remaining openings. The board did not take further action beyond approval of the personnel report and a move to executive session to discuss personnel matters; no votes were expected after the executive session.

Next steps: staff will return to the board with additional hire confirmations at a future meeting when certification and paperwork are completed.
