Board hears about speech‑language pathologist retirement and staffing levels
Summary
A board member asked about an open speech‑language pathologist position; the Director said the role is important, the incumbent is retiring, and the district currently has about one speech pathologist per building (around four districtwide).
During tentative agenda review a board member asked about agenda item 11, a speech‑language pathologist vacancy. The Director said the position is important for students who need support and that the current opening is the result of a retirement.
The Director said the district currently staffs roughly one speech‑language pathologist in each building — "so we have around 4 in our district" — and described the vacancy as a like‑for‑like replacement rather than an additional position. The Director said the district is in the process of replacing the retiring staff member but did not provide a hiring timeline.
