Board approves reassignment of assistant principal Kyle Gordon to teaching role in 8–1 vote

The board took a separate vote on a personnel item requested by Kyle Gordon asking to move from an assistant principal position to a teaching position. After separating that item from the broader personnel list for individual consideration, the motion to approve Kyle Gordon’s reassignment carried 8–1; the chair noted one opposed vote from Katie.

All other personnel items on the agenda were approved by the board as part of the combined personnel motion, with the exception of item 2, which was the separate Gordon request. The approved personnel list included hiring four teachers (physics teacher, reading specialist, special education autistic support teacher, and a high school life-skills teacher), permission for library instructional assistants to work additional days, summer IT hires, extended school-year staffing details, three resignations, permission for support employees to work extra summer hours, adjusted substitute pay rates for ESS, and a memorandum of agreement with the Punxsutawney Area Education Association related to metal detectors and professional development.

The board recorded the separate vote result aloud in the meeting: "Motion carries 8 to 1," and the chair identified the lone opposing vote.
