The Carlynton School District superintendent delivered a back-to-school report at the Aug. 20 board meeting, highlighting opening-day performances, new hires and a series of upcoming community forums.

He listed newly hired staff on the agenda: Carrie McGregor (Life Skills Autistic Support Teacher, Grafton Elementary), Dominic Polite (counselor, Grafton Elementary) and long-term substitute kindergarten teacher Kaylee Coss at Grafton.

The superintendent said the district will continue to monitor operations such as transportation and drop-off procedures as the school year begins.
