Board accepts Heidi Perry resignation, hires custodian and sets treasurer‑search timeline

The Miami East Local Board of Education approved personnel consent items that included the newly added resignation of Heidi Perry, High School English teacher, effective July 31, 2026, and the hiring of a K–8 swing‑shift custodian, Sam Henning.

At the meeting the superintendent presented three personnel recommendations: hire Sam Henning (a recent district graduate) for the custodian vacancy, authorize additional summer hours for Mrs. Rose to support athletics and pre‑season tasks, and accept the letter of resignation from Heidi Perry effective July 31, 2026. “We recommend the approval of the letter of resignation of Heidi Perry High School English effective July 31st, 2026,” a board speaker said when the agenda amendment was introduced. The personnel consent agenda passed on roll call.

Separately, the board reviewed and confirmed the treasurer search schedule. The application window was set for June 8–20; the board scheduled an executive‑session candidate screening on June 24, first‑round interviews on July 2 and final interviews on July 7, with a separate special meeting to hire the treasurer to be scheduled in July. The superintendent and search staff said search materials and a candidate brochure are posted on the district website; board members agreed to share the posting on social media to broaden outreach.

Board members also discussed the elementary principal vacancy process following a prior resignation and said they expect to finalize a candidate soon after committee interviews.

Actions taken in this agenda block were procedural personnel approvals and scheduling of search and interview dates; no disciplinary or contested personnel actions were reported at the meeting.
