Board approves certified recommendation for Andrea Gregory as high school counselor, pending certification
Summary
The Weston County School Board approved the certified recommendation to hire Andrea Gregory as the high school guidance counselor, subject to pending certification and noting a potential grant-funded start to serve student needs this school year.
The board voted to approve the certified recommendation to hire Andrea Gregory as the high school guidance counselor, pending state certification.
"I would recommend to the board, Andrea Gregory, for the high school counselor," a district staff speaker said, noting certification was pending and that staff were working with the Professional Teaching Standards Board to expedite the process. A motion to approve was made and seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.
District staff said if certification is completed soon, monies exist in the district to expand the hire under a grant for the remainder of the school year rather than using general fund dollars. The board noted the August start date mentioned in the packet is for the next school year and not an immediate start date.
Board members asked about the advertisement period and applicant pool; staff said the position was advertised for about 15 days and produced one applicant for the certified, non-teaching category. The board approved the recommendation with the condition of pending certification.
