Loading...
Summary
Trustees approved the superintendent’s 2026–27 contract recommendations and several elementary principal appointments; one trustee was recused from a specific packet item and the board recorded the recusal on the public record.
The Rock Hill School Board on April 28 approved a slate of personnel actions recommended by the superintendent, including contract recommendations and principal appointments for multiple elementary schools.
A board member moved to approve the superintendent’s recommendations for 2026–27 contract actions and nonrenewals; the motion was recorded as carrying 7–0. During the vote, a trustee asked to be recused from packet item number 82; the chair recorded that Robert Belton would be recused from that specific item and his vote would not count on it.
Separately, the board approved superintendent recommendations for elementary principals at Oakdale, Mount Gallant, Leslie and Sunset Park elementary schools. Motions to approve each recommendation were made, seconded and carried; the chair announced results as unanimous in those roll calls.
The motions were presented as coming from the superintendent’s office and were handled as standard personnel approvals stemming from the executive-session recommendations. The board placed the recusal on the record for transparency and continued with the remaining motions.
The approvals will be reflected in personnel listings and the administration said human-resources staff will finalize contract paperwork as appropriate.
