Summary

At its Jan. 5 meeting the Mount Pleasant Public Schools Board approved the Dec. 15 minutes, accepted the retirement of Rhonda Lundstead and approved Caitlin Bernie as a new language‑arts teacher at Mount Pleasant Middle School.

The Mount Pleasant Public Schools Board of Education approved routine consent items and personnel actions during its Jan. 5 meeting.

The board voted to approve the Dec. 15, 2025 meeting minutes as part of the consent agenda. The board then honored the retirement of longtime educator Rhonda Lundstead, who the district said has served approximately 20½ years and will teach through the end of January; the board moved and voted to accept the retirement.

The board also approved the hire of Caitlin Bernie, who was present in the audience and is slated to start the next day as a language arts teacher at Mount Pleasant Middle School. All three actions were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote; the transcript records unanimous "Aye" responses but does not record a roll‑call tally by name.

The superintendent additionally asked the board to review educational governance agreements and suggested any edits be brought back at the next meeting so absent member Andy can participate in the review. No formal changes to those agreements were adopted at the Jan. 5 meeting.

Next procedural step: Governance agreement edits will be considered at a future meeting after additional review.
