Board approves principal hire and routine personnel items, honors retirees and students
Summary
The board approved personnel recommendations including hiring Sean Doherty as principal at Riverview, granted extended days to the new athletic director, confirmed employment contracts and honored retirees and top seniors; votes on these routine items passed by roll call.
The Stow-Munroe Falls City School District Board approved a set of superintendent-recommended personnel actions on May 18, including appointing Sean Doherty as Riverview Elementary principal. Trustees also approved extended transition days (10 days) at per-diem rates for incoming athletic director Troy Spiker to work with the athletic department before his official Aug. 1 start date. The board approved one- and two-year contracts as recommended, and granted continuing (tenured) contracts for certified personnel after administrators described the evaluation process that led to the recommendations.
Administrators also led a ceremonial portion of the meeting honoring many retirees from across the district (examples: Michelle Dame — 35 years at Indian Trail; Jim Scalza — 41 years at the high school; others across elementary and high-school buildings) and recognized the district’s top 10 seniors and Bulldog award recipients. Trustees briefly discussed procedural questions about contract lengths and tenure but ultimately voted to approve the personnel items as presented by the superintendent.
Votes and administrative follow-up: the board approved the personnel recommendations, asked for some clarifying follow-up (exact per-diem calculation for the athletic director), and directed administration to provide contract references as requested.
