Board OKs posting for grant-writer/assessment coordinator, renames two positions to assistant superintendent roles
Summary
The board approved posting a combined grant-writer/assessment coordinator position, changed two existing staff titles to assistant superintendent roles effective July 1, and approved job descriptions for the new titles and the grant-writer role.
The board approved a series of personnel and staffing-structure changes designed to centralize grant-writing and align district supervisory roles.
Administrators asked the board to post a district grant-writer/assessment coordinator position (a teacher contract at 185 days) to support revenue development and assessment coordination. "Every year that I've been to KSBA conferences, it is highly recommended that we have one person that strictly does grant writing for the district," a presenter said, arguing a dedicated staffer would capture more funding than spreading the work across multiple roles.
The board also approved changing the human-resources director and the instructional supervisor titles to assistant superintendent of district operations and personnel and assistant superintendent of instruction and federal programs, respectively, effective July 1. Job descriptions for the two assistant superintendent roles and the grant-writer/assessment coordinator were approved in the same motion.
Board members characterized the moves as administrative and implementation-focused; the motions passed by voice vote. The transcript records that these approvals do not add new positions beyond the posted grant-writer role but retitle existing staff and formalize job descriptions.
