Mahomet-Seymour hires Jessica Bryson as district director of communications
Summary
The Mahomet-Seymour CUSD 3 board approved an employment contract for Jessica Bryson on June 16 after a multi-round selection process; the superintendent said Bryson is a local parent and impressed interviewers with assignments given during the search process.
After multiple interview rounds and a work sample exercise, the Mahomet-Seymour CUSD 3 Board of Education on June 16 approved an employment contract for Jessica Bryson as the district’s director of communications.
Superintendent Dr. Lee recommended Bryson to the board, saying she ‘‘impressed us in the first round of the interviews and our second round’’ and that her project submitted as part of the process was "fantastic." The superintendent noted the hire reflects a long‑running district priority to add communications capacity.
The nut graf: board members said the district had discussed adding a communications position for years and that Bryson’s local ties—she and her children are part of the district—were a factor board members valued in the selection.
Board members moved and seconded the recommendation and approved the employment contract by roll call. Bryson was present at the meeting and the board offered congratulations after the vote.
Ending: The district will onboard Bryson for the role and implement the communications goals discussed previously by staff and the board; no additional contract terms were read into the public record during the meeting excerpt.
