The Quabbin Regional School Committee unanimously approved the appointment of a new school business administrator on a three‑year contract beginning with a prorated period from Oct. 14, 2025, through June 30, 2026, followed by a two‑year contract from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028. The committee held the hiring discussion in executive session and moved swiftly to a roll‑call vote in open session.
Superintendent (name not specified in the transcript) introduced the candidate to the committee and described the contract structure and future salary‑adjustment discussions. The superintendent said the initial period will be prorated and that the board approved the two subsequent full fiscal‑year terms.
Board members conducted a roll‑call vote after the motion and second; each member present recorded an affirmative vote. Doctor Allen, Mister Marsh, Mister Deschamps, Miss Kelly, Missus Chamberlain, Miss Muck, Mister Moncour, Mister Wigler, Missus Thompson and Mister Nutter were recorded as voting "yes." The motion carried and the superintendent welcomed the appointee to the district.
The committee discussion noted that further details about salary adjustments would be discussed by the administration going forward. No amendments to the contract terms were recorded in the meeting minutes.
The superintendent introduced the appointee in person at the meeting; in the transcript the candidate is referred to as "Allison" and in earlier sections the last name appears with different spellings. The committee did not provide a definitive, consistently spelled last name in the meeting transcript.
