School board approves employment contract for Superintendent Edward Tierney
Summary
The Monroe County School Board voted unanimously to approve an employment contract for Edward Tierney; the board took a roll-call vote after brief discussion and procedural questions about posting and edits.
The Monroe County School Board approved an employment contract for Edward Tierney on a unanimous roll-call vote Thursday.
The board voted after Superintendent contract language was posted late Wednesday and briefly edited Thursday; board members said the edits were grammatical and non‑substantive. Board Chair Maria Khan recommended approval and called for the vote.
The contract action was introduced as a tentative add-on by the board’s agenda manager; board members then moved and seconded the motion. Dr. Wiltanski said he believed the district representatives “did a very good job representing the taxpayers of Monroe County,” and asked for a roll call. Board Clerk called the roll and the motion passed with all members voting yes.
Board members said they had limited substantive concerns and thanked the negotiating team for its work. Assistant staff confirmed the version posted the day before was the same in substance as the version presented at the meeting; one board member noted minor corrections (titles, commas) but no material changes.
The vote was procedural: the board approved sending the contract to Mr. Tierney to sign. The board did not discuss the contract’s monetary terms or start date on the public record during the meeting.
The meeting record does not show any dissenting votes or amendments to the contract.
The board adjourned after finishing the scheduled business.
