Mt. Healthy City Board approves contracts, personnel slate and a reduction in force amid fiscal emergency
Summary
At its April 20 meeting the Mt. Healthy City Board unanimously approved multiple contracts and personnel actions — including resignations, administrative and classified hires, issuance of one‑ and two‑year limited contracts, supplemental duties and a reduction in force that followed the district's financial recovery plan; the board then entered executive session.
The Mt. Healthy City Board of Education on April 20 approved a series of administrative and personnel measures, several procurement items and a reduction in force tied to the district’s financial recovery plan.
The board voted unanimously to approve the meeting agenda and the minutes of the March 16 regular meeting before taking up a contracts chart and several procurement items. The treasurer presented a contracts list that included planning work for FY27; the board approved the contracts and a short set of purchase orders exceeding $5,000 by roll‑call vote (all yes). The board also approved a single 'then‑and‑now' authorization for athletics transportation covering January and February.
In superintendent business, Dr. Wilson announced graduation will be May 19, 2026, at City Gate Church (doors 6 p.m.; ceremony 7 p.m.). The board then considered personnel matters at the superintendent’s recommendation. Motions brought to the floor and approved by unanimous roll call included resignations (as listed on the agenda), a reduction in force consistent with the district’s financial recovery plan, approval of listed administrative personnel (with a correction to a contract amount clarified in discussion), classified personnel, and the issuance of one‑year limited contracts effective Aug. 1, 2026. The board also approved two‑year limited contracts and the supplemental duty positions noted on the agenda.
Treasurer and HR staff told the board they reviewed payroll and the salary schedule before recommending approval of one‑year limited contracts and said they had corrected an error where a prior prorated amount had been copied in place of the full contract amount. During the administrative personnel discussion, Mister Kilgore asked for clarification about the contract amount; Dr. Wilson explained the previous figure had been prorated and the current submission reflects the actual contract value.
All recorded votes on listed motions were taken by roll call and were unanimous (Miss Anderson: yes; Miss Bryant: yes; Miss Butler: yes; Mister Frazier: yes; Mister Kilgore: yes). The board then moved into an executive session at 7:16 p.m. for matters to be kept confidential; the superintendent said there would be no votes upon return.
What this means: The motion to approve a reduction in force formalizes personnel changes the district said were necessary under its financial recovery plan; the board’s approvals of contracts and limited‑term agreements set staffing and procurement for the coming year while the district continues to pursue grants and possible levy support to stabilize funding.
