Summary
At the July 17 meeting Dr. Sandra Wood read her resignation letter; later the board approved a contractual agreement with Dr. Wood, though the minutes do not specify the agreement's terms.
Dr. Sandra Wood, the superintendent of the MSD of New Durham Township, read her resignation letter to the board at the July 17, 2024 meeting and provided an update related to a timeline described as "Schmidt's timeline." The minutes record the reading of the letter and the timeline update but do not record a separate vote to accept the resignation.
Later in the meeting the board approved a contractual agreement with Dr. Wood after a motion by Board President Mark Parkman that was seconded by board member Karen Jedrysek; the minutes state the motion "carried." The board did not record the terms of that contractual agreement in the minutes.
The minutes list the presence of board members Wayne Hodge, Mark Parkman and Karen Jedrysek and note Phil Burdine as absent. The superintendent's resignation, the timeline update referenced by Dr. Wood, and the subsequent contractual approval appeared in different portions of the minutes; the district record does not specify whether the contract relates to an employment continuation, a separation agreement, transition support, or another arrangement.
No public comment on the superintendent's resignation is recorded in the minutes. The board scheduled its next regular meeting for Wednesday, Aug. 14, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. in the Media Center; the meeting adjourned at 6:35 p.m.
