Littlestown Area SD staff prepare for move; 27 teachers to relocate during MLK week

Unidentified Speaker 1, identified only in the meeting transcript as Speaker 1, told the board the district is deep into logistics for a move into a new high-school space. "By my count, I believe it's 27 high school teachers that will be making a move into a new classroom the week of the MLK holiday," the speaker said, adding that "8 of those will be required to move second time as their homes are just temporary."

Speaker 1 said staff have been "very positive in conversations with me about the move" and thanked maintenance personnel for preparation work, which includes setting up Internet access and readying classrooms. The speaker described staff sorting materials "to prepare what is truly of value" for the transition and said some staff will be displaced temporarily as rooms are reshuffled.

During follow-up, the meeting included practical details on packing and staging: when asked "What do you do with all your personal?" (Speaker 2), Speaker 1 said extra boxes and staging will be available the week prior so teachers can move personal items and classroom materials. Speaker 1 gave the example that math departments have large sets of calculators that require coordination when moved.

The district did not record a formal motion or vote on the move in the transcript. The board did not identify a specific date beyond "the week of the MLK holiday" and did not specify which buildings will house displaced staff after the moves. Next procedural steps in the transcript: continued preparation by maintenance and planned classroom setup; no formal action was recorded in the meeting minutes provided.
