Summary

The board introduced Hallie Snyder as the recommended director for career pathways and workforce innovation; her appointment (pending board approval) will begin Nov. 12. Trustees praised the district's focus on CTE and workforce credentials.

Brad Paddock introduced Hallie Snyder as the recommended hire for director of career pathways and workforce innovation. Pending the board’s approval in the meeting’s consent/appointment items, Snyder will begin in the role on Nov. 12.

Snyder described a background including 11 years as a business-education teacher and 19 years in district and building leadership with focus on curriculum, career and technical education (CTE) and career readiness. Trustees highlighted workforce needs and the importance of industry-recognized credentials for students who enter the job market directly after high school.

Why it matters: The position centralizes CTE leadership, employer partnerships and work-based learning; trustees said increasing industry-aligned programs and stackable credentials helps students who pursue employment following graduation and supports local workforce needs.

Next steps: The board will take the formal appointment action as part of the meeting’s consent/agenda items, and Snyder will begin work with district staff and local business partners to expand pathways.
