Wilson board approves 14 professional hires; one member abstains
Summary
The board approved hiring 14 recommended professional employees. The motion to approve the hires passed 8-0 with Mrs. Denny recorded as abstaining on the vote pertaining to the professional hires.
The Wilson School District Board approved 14 recommended professional hires for the upcoming school year in a roll-call vote at its April 14 meeting.
Superintendent Dr. Trickett introduced the list of recommended hires by name and invited the new employees and their families to be welcomed after the vote. The hires listed in the motion were: Johnny Clark, Kristen Chadwick, Lytle Dawson, Josh Edwards, Joy France, Lauren Klunk, Adam Kansavage, Nicole Lukowski, Morgan Mattia, Justin Morris, Tegan O'Neil, Matthew Prabula, Kaylee Rank, Nathan Schafer, Leslie Sigori and Madison Sneer (names as presented to the board).
Board action: The motion to approve professional hires (agenda item 7.1) was moved by Mr. Schneider and seconded by Dr. Kennedy. On roll-call the board recorded eight votes in favor and one abstention by Mrs. Denny. The tally on the hire motion was recorded as 8 yes, 0 no, 1 abstain.
Board and community remarks: Mrs. Denny, who announced her abstention before the vote, said she was abstaining because one of the recommended hires is a close friend but offered public praise for the full slate, congratulating the new employees and noting the district's commitment to supporting lifelong learning for staff. "I always love it when I see people who are on a career; education is a lifelong thing," Mrs. Denny said.
What this means: The newly hired professionals were approved to begin as listed in the superintendent's personnel recommendations; the district said the hires will be introduced to the board and community during a brief reception after the vote.
