Park Ridge CCSD 64 board approves personnel report, including multiple dismissals and nonrenewals
Summary
The Park Ridge CCSD 64 Board of Education approved a personnel report and four resolutions tied to honorable dismissals and nonrenewals, citing lower enrollment; the motions passed on a unanimous roll-call vote as recorded in the transcript.
The Park Ridge CCSD 64 Board of Education voted to approve the district's personnel report dated March 19, 2026, and associated resolutions that the superintendent recommended, the board recorded in its meeting transcript.
Joel, the staff member who presented the report, said the annual personnel actions reflect enrollment shortfalls rather than wrongdoing: "These are individuals who have done nothing wrong. It has to do with the fact that we don't have our enrollment," and that the district will consider rehiring as numbers clarify.
A board member moved to approve the personnel report and read multiple resolution numbers as part of the motion: "resolution number 13 85, honorable dismissal of teachers; resolution number 13 86, dismissal of probationary educational support personnel employees; resolution number 13 87, non reemployment of part time educational support personnel employees; resolution number 1388, nonrenewal of administrators' contracts and honorable dismissal of teachers," and noted the report was "based on the recommendation of the superintendent and not upon the board's direct knowledge regarding any of the specific individuals selected for employment." The motion was seconded.
The clerk conducted a roll-call vote. The transcript records affirmative responses for the members listed as Rankin; Georgakus (the transcript later shows a variant spelling "George Aikas"); Kempel; Luisi; Klein; Doubleday; and Milligan. The motion carried with those recorded 'yes' votes.
The board's action approves the listed resolutions as presented in the meeting record. The transcript does not specify the number of employees affected by each resolution or identify the individuals; those specifics were not provided in the public motion and were described only as administrative personnel actions tied to enrollment levels.
Next steps noted in the meeting record: none specified beyond the formal approval. The consent agenda and other routine items followed and were approved before the meeting adjourned.
