Scott County School District 2 board approves $214,306.21 K–5 reading curriculum and multiple personnel changes
Summary
The school board voted 5–0 to approve the consent agenda, which included a six‑year purchase of the Wonders 2023 K–5 reading curriculum for $214,306.21, several staff resignations and recommended hires, salary/benefit day‑rate adjustments and extracurricular appointments.
The Scott County School District 2 School Board voted unanimously to approve the consent agenda at its April 8, 2026, meeting, approving a set of financial claims, personnel items and a curriculum purchase.
Under the consent agenda, the board authorized a six‑year purchase of the Wonders 2023 Reading Curriculum for grades K–5 at a total cost of $214,306.21. The purchase was listed among regular claims and other financial considerations presented to the board.
The consent package also recorded multiple personnel actions: several resignations (including Amber Zeigenbein, SMS drama sponsor; Emily Spellman, SES teacher; Brianna Guinn, JES teacher; and others), certified and support staff recommendations (for example, Sherna Williams as district psychologist effective 2026–27), and a set of 2026–27 salary/benefit day‑rate changes for named employees.
Additional items approved under consent included extracurricular (ECA) recommendations for sponsors and coordinators, volunteer approvals for a range of sports and activities, professional leave requests for staff training and conferences, specific leave notices (including an extended leave through August 2026 for Sharon Mull), facility use requests for district venues, and positions the district plans to post for the coming year.
The motion to approve the consent agenda was made by Mr. McIntosh and seconded by Mrs. Soloe; the board recorded the motion as carried 5–0.
The approval places procurement and personnel steps into motion ahead of the 2026–27 school year; the board did not discuss substantive changes to the items beyond their inclusion in the consent agenda.
