Board approves personnel additions, recognizes retirees and tenure recipients
Summary
The West Seneca board approved personnel items including a 1.0 FTE school social worker (Title-funded) and part-time (.4 FTE) art and music positions to reduce travel inefficiencies; the board also approved the consent agenda, recognized roughly 34 tenure recipients and nearly 40 retirees representing over 800 years of service.
The board approved several personnel actions June 9, including a school social worker position and part-time art and music additions, and recognized long-serving staff receiving tenure and retirement honors.
A motion to approve agenda item 3A carried after discussion. According to materials presented at the meeting, the 1.0 FTE school social worker is intended to address rising behavioral and mental-health caseloads and will be paid for with Title grant funds. The art and music additions are part-time (0.4 FTE each) intended to reduce travel-related instructional inefficiencies by consolidating sections across buildings.
The board subsequently approved agenda item 4A and the consent agenda. Under the consent agenda the district recognized personnel changes, including tenure recommendations and retirements. Dr. John Cerrone reported the district honored approximately 34 tenure recipients and just under 40 retirees; collectively those retirees represent more than 800 years of service to the district.
Votes at the meeting were recorded as motions with seconds and roll-call-style affirmation; for item 3A the meeting recorded the motion as passing with six votes in favor. The transcript does not provide a complete, name-by-name roll-call vote for each item in the public record excerpt.
What happens next: human-resources postings remain live at the district website for interested applicants; the district said it will continue staffing and scheduling work over the summer.
