Summary
Personnel committee reported on new hires, an open K-12 science supervisor search, lunch/recess monitor job descriptions and a proposed increase to substitute pay rates to match county averages.
The board received a personnel committee update covering hiring, an open K-12 science supervisor position, updated job descriptions for lunch and recess monitors and discussion of substitute pay rates.
Committee members reported a district hiring update from Mr. Moore and said new hires will be invited to meet the board in September. The K-12 science supervisor vacancy remains open. The committee said it is drafting job descriptions for lunch and recess monitors and noted that monitors will wear high-visibility yellow vests.
Members discussed substitute pay rates and county comparisons. The committee presented a spreadsheet of neighboring-district rates and said the district's daily substitute rates are currently in the lower end of a range around $1.40 to $1.60 (per transcript). Board members recommended revisiting the rate if the district's substitute fill rates decline; permanent substitute rates were discussed separately and could require separate adjustments.
Dr. Bangea and other board members emphasized the district's need to balance competitiveness with budget constraints. The committee did not finalize rates at the meeting and said further analysis will continue.
