Summary
Superintendent Andy thanked staff for end‑of‑year events, announced a literacy institute with visiting speaker Chris Stavani and noted the death of longtime custodian Victor Grievo; the board also read a letter honoring Chief Tracy on their final meeting.
Superintendent Andy opened the report by thanking teachers, support staff and administrators for end‑of‑year ceremonies and events that he said left students ending the year on a positive note. He highlighted ongoing maintenance work, the district’s hiring season and a voluntary literacy institute next week led by visiting speaker Chris Stavani for grades K–12; about 30 staff were expected to participate and participants would be paid for the voluntary week of professional development.
Andy also announced the death of a recent retiree, longtime high‑school custodian Victor Grievo, and the district offered condolences to his family. The superintendent read a prepared letter recognizing Chief Tracy’s service; the board presented a plaque reading “in recognition of your dedication to RSU 18” and planned a brief end‑of‑meeting celebration.
The superintendent said maintenance and hiring remain priorities over the summer and thanked building administrators for accommodating events such as a Camp Tracy activity. He also relayed a brief safety committee outreach update and indicated the district had contacted CSX and state forest officials about a cluster of fires near the rail line.
