Summary
The board accepted a principal's retirement, several resignations, awarded McGifford and Associates LLC oversight of paving bids, approved pageant judge pay and security payments for the 2026–27 year, and confirmed Jump Start kindergarten staffing.
The Bibb County Regular School District board approved a slate of routine personnel and procurement items on the regular agenda.
The board approved the retirement of James Austin, principal, effective Aug. 1, 2026, and accepted resignations from Robert Lowell (special-education teacher, effective May 22, 2026), Haley Harris (teacher, effective May 22, 2026) and Casey Reach (counselor, effective May 23, 2026).
The board awarded McGifford and Associates LLC the role of overseeing the bid process for various paving projects. It also approved payment of $75 per judge for a pageant scheduled April 24, 2026, at West Lawton Elementary School, to be paid from that school's local funds, and authorized hourly security pay of $22.50 from Bibb County High School local funds for named security personnel for the 2026–27 school year.
As part of program staffing approvals, the board approved Jump Start kindergarten summer program personnel at Randolph and Brent elementary schools, naming lead and auxiliary teachers for each site.
All items were presented by the clerk as recommended by the superintendent and were approved by voice vote as recorded in the meeting transcript. The actions were routine approvals required for personnel transitions, procurement oversight and summer-program staffing; the meeting record does not show substantive debate on these items.
