Clearview Board orders repayment after investigation finds assistant coaches paid for unperformed duties
Summary
The Clearview Board of Education unanimously adopted a resolution directing recovery of supplemental pay after a High School Principal's investigation found two assistant middle-school wrestling coaches were paid despite not performing duties and routed most of their net pay to a volunteer coach. The board also directed reporting to the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce's Office for Professional Conduct and held a brief executive session on personnel.
The Clearview Board of Education voted unanimously on Sept. 2, 2025, to recover supplemental compensation after an investigation concluded two assistant middle-school wrestling coaches were paid for duties they did not perform and provided most of their net supplemental pay to a volunteer assistant coach.
Mrs. Love, a board member, moved the resolution and Miss Echko seconded. The board formally adopted the measure (recorded as Resolutions 2025-137 and 2025-138) with recorded votes in favor by President Michael Post, Miss Echko, Mr. Koziura, Mrs. Love and Mrs. Sutton.
The board's resolution summarizes the High School Principal's investigation, stating that one assistant coach during the 2023'024 school year and a second during the 2024'025 school year received supplemental compensation but did not fully perform assistant-coach duties. The investigation found those coaches, identified in the resolution as Miles Jones and Mark Majoras, provided a majority of their net supplemental pay to a volunteer assistant coach, who accepted the payments. The resolution characterizes the conduct as a serious breach of professional responsibility.
Under the resolution, the Superintendent and the Treasurer are to take steps to recover the supplemental compensation paid to Miles Jones and Mark Majoras. The board also imposed an immediate restriction barring employees identified as (a) having received supplemental pay for unperformed duties, (b) having known about and not reported such payments, (c) having authorized or facilitated such payments, or (d) having received monies related to performance of duties as a volunteer coach, from holding future supplemental positions with the district until further notice.
The board directed the Superintendent to submit any necessary reports to the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce's Office for Professional Conduct related to current and/or former employees' conduct addressed in the investigation report. The resolution does not specify dollar amounts to be recovered or timelines for repayment.
There were no public comments on either agenda or non-agenda items. The board entered a brief executive session at 8:30 a.m. under Ohio Revised Code Section 121.22(g)(1) to discuss the employment, dismissal or discipline of an employee; the Treasurer was invited to attend. The board recorded no action taken in executive session and exited at 8:31 a.m.
The meeting record also notes customary procedural items: approval of the special meeting agenda (Resolution 2025-135) and approval of Aug. 27, 2025 minutes (Resolution 2025-136). The board recorded adjournment (Resolution 2025-140) and listed its next regular meeting for Sept. 8, 2025, at 6:30 p.m.
The Superintendent and Treasurer are the board-appointed officials assigned to implement the repayment and reporting directives; the resolution does not provide further implementation dates or amounts.
