Freedom Public Schools board approves two certified hires for 2025–26
Summary
The Freedom Public Schools board approved contracts to hire an elementary teacher and a speech teacher for the 2025–26 school year after a recommendation from district staff. Votes were unanimous.
The Freedom Public Schools board voted to approve contracts for two certified hires for the 2025–26 school year: Kelly Clayton as an elementary teacher and Konya (Kanya) Martin as a speech teacher.
District staff recommended the hires, saying both positions were needed for next year. A staff member presented the recommendation and the board moved and seconded the motion; the board approved the contracts by roll call.
The vote tally announced at the meeting was unanimous in favor. Board members who responded in the roll call included Rhodes, Patrick, Babcock, Mary and others who voted yes.
The board also discussed, but did not act on at that time, an additional contract for support staff member Roger Riggs; that matter was taken up separately.
The hires are listed on the meeting agenda as certified-staff contract approvals for fiscal year 2026. The board did not provide additional public details about contract length, salary or start dates during the discussion.
