Summary
Coldwater Community Schools' board approved a consent agenda that accepted resignations and authorized hires across certified, support and extra-duty positions; several appointments are pending background checks and one long-serving maintenance employee gave notice with an Aug. 15, 2025 effective date.
The Coldwater Community Schools Board of Education approved a consent agenda that included a slate of personnel actions across certified, support and extra-duty positions.
A staff member (speaker 1) read the administrative recommendations: the board accepted with regret the resignation of Aaron Ormsby from a high school English teaching position and approved employment of Abigail Skidmore for high school English and Abigail Labrosse for a young 5 teaching position at Max Larson Elementary, both contingent on successful background checks for the 2025–26 school year. The board approved employment of Keith Bader Schneider for a sixth–eighth grade ELA intervention role at Lake Middle School and Bridal (surname appears inconsistently in the transcript) was listed as resigning from the JV girls basketball coaching position.
The board accepted the resignation of Nick Knauss from the lead maintenance and grounds position for Coldwater Community Schools effective Aug. 15, 2025, noting 13 years of service. The board also approved support and extra-duty hires including Nicole Houston (part-time ELL support at Lake Middle), Madison Wright (freshman girls volleyball coach), Amanda Morrick (JV boys tennis coach) and Cody Fischel (seventh-grade assistant football coach), among others; several hires were noted as pending background checks.
A motion to approve the consent agenda was made and seconded and the board approved the motion by affirmation. The personnel items read by staff were included under that consent action and will be reflected in district records.
The board moved on to action items following approval of the consent agenda.
