Board honors retiring staff and SROs, confers tenure and approves personnel appointments
Summary
At its June 17 meeting the Harrison Central School District board honored dozens of retiring employees and two retiring school resource officers, approved a large personnel consent agenda including conferral of tenure, and confirmed appointments for two administrative roles.
The Harrison Central School District Board of Education on June 17 recognized a large cohort of retiring employees, conferred tenure for multiple staff members and approved several personnel appointments on a consent agenda.
The board read names and years of service for paraprofessionals, aides, custodians, school monitors and teachers, with several employees acknowledged for 20–39 years of service. The meeting included an extended tribute to two retiring school resource officers — Robbie Bud and Joe Pillo — whom the superintendent praised for repeated acts that, the superintendent said, "stepped in and make sure your kids were safe." The superintendent framed the SROs' work as part of the district's safety and student‑support network.
The board approved the personnel consent items by voice vote. The consent agenda included one resignation for the purpose of retirement, conferral of tenure for multiple staff members named on the record, and a range of appointments (regular, temporary, summer, and extra‑compensation assignments) contingent on required SEDD clearance, which the record notes as received or submitted where applicable.
The board confirmed two personnel appointments occurring during the meeting: Dominique Paniano was announced as probationary assistant principal at Louis M. Klein Middle School and Jenna Moore as probationary supervisor of elementary special education; the agenda records required background clearance steps as part of the personnel process. Dr. Le also recommended Katie Marti for the position of executive assistant for human resources, which was announced to the board and supported in the meeting discussion.
No roll‑call vote tallies are recorded in the meeting transcript for the personnel motions; the record shows voice votes in which board members responded in the affirmative. The board scheduled no further public action on these personnel items at the meeting besides the consent approvals and the appointments announced during the session.
The board paused for a brief recess to present tenure certificates and then resumed regular business.
