School board approves dozens of hires, transfers and vendor payments ahead of 2026–27 school year
Summary
At its June 9 meeting, the Bibb County Regular School District board approved numerous personnel moves, a $40,000-a-year therapy contract, and several summer vendor payments while a trustee requested clearer presentation of competing salary schedules.
The Bibb County Regular School District board on June 9 approved a lengthy slate of personnel actions — including hires, transfers and resignations — and authorized several vendor payments for summer services and the 2026–27 school year.
The board voted to adopt a revised Student Information Systems Manager job description and accepted the resignation of Amy Crawford, a Woodstock Elementary School teacher, effective June 24, 2026. Trustees approved a string of transfers and reassignments for classroom and special-education staff at Brent Primary, Brent Elementary and other district schools, and confirmed multiple new hires for the coming school year.
The board also approved extracurricular and vendor payments: $500 from Bib County High School local funds each to Cameron Wyatt and Caitlyn McMillan for choreography work during band camp; $11,800 from local school and PTO funds to AAA Environmental Services for moving furniture and floor stripping/waxing at Brent Elementary and Brent Primary; and a contract with Helping Hands Therapy for physical therapy services at $40,000 per year, described in the meeting as covering up to 35 IEP visits monthly for qualifying students. The transcript did not specify the exact funding line for the Helping Hands contract.
A board member raised a procedural question about two agenda items (referred to at the meeting as items K and L): whether the board should vote on those hires or reassignments before adopting an updated salary schedule and whether the employees being hired had accepted reassignment under the current schedule. Staff replied that hires would be placed on the current salary schedule pending adoption of a new schedule.
Superintendent remarks at the meeting noted the district’s summer camps had wrapped up in June and thanked staff who worked through the break; the superintendent added the district is ‘‘looking forward to planning [and] preparing for a new year’’ and emphasized ongoing hiring efforts.
The board approved the listed substitutes and noted an approved leave for an employee; it also scheduled the next board work session for Thursday, July 9 at 1 p.m. and the next meeting for Tuesday, July 14, 2026 at 5 p.m. Before adjourning, a trustee asked staff (addressed as Miss Elum) to present both salary-schedule options side-by-side at the workstation so trustees could compare job-by-job across options.
The meeting adjourned without further action reported.
