Gilmer County Schools: board approves bills, personnel items and permission-to-post requests
Summary
At its meeting the Gilmer County Schools board approved bills for payment and multiple personnel items — professional hires, service hires, extracurricular staff changes — and granted permission to post coaching positions; most approvals were by voice vote with no individual tallies recorded in the transcript.
The Gilmer County Schools board approved a series of routine items including payment of district bills, professional and service personnel recommendations, extracurricular staffing changes, and permission to post auxiliary coaching positions.
A trustee moved to approve the bills for payment and the Chair seconded; the motion carried by voice vote. The presenter then walked trustees through personnel recommendations: professional hires (including Bridal Spunogel as community and schools liaison at GCHS and Stacy Butler as a third-grade teacher at Gilmer County Elementary), service hires (Chelsea Jenkins, Bridal Finsham, Stacy Stoniker) and extracurricular roster changes (resignation of Rick Sperouse, hires including Ryan Tomlin and Timothy White, and appointment of George Denny Hardman as head varsity wrestling coach). Each section of the personnel agenda was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The board also granted permission to post auxiliary elementary basketball coach positions for second/third grade and fourth/fifth grade. Trustees discussed operational items tied to athletics — for example, obtaining a track/wrestling account and completing late certifications — and directed staff to follow up on those logistics.
All approvals in the transcript were recorded as voice votes with trustees responding "aye"; the transcript does not include roll-call tallies or recorded opposed votes.
Next steps: staff will carry out hiring, post the approved positions, and complete required certification and account setup for athletics.
