Summary

The Sylvania Schools Board approved the appointment of Joe Shammy as food-service supervisor and heard a short introduction and statement from Shammy; the board said the position will be paid out of the food-service fund and yield general-fund savings of about $130,000.

The Sylvania Schools Board approved the appointment of Joe Shammy as the district's food-service supervisor following a nomination, an introduction and a roll-call vote.

A board member recommended item 4.4 to appoint Joe Shammy to the position at the introductory administrative salary level for that role and said the district will pay the position from the food-service fund, yielding an estimated $130,000 in general-fund savings by reallocating responsibilities. The nomination was seconded and approved by unanimous roll-call vote.

A board member read a short biography of Shammy, describing more than 30 years of experience in hospitality management and school food service, degrees from Owens Community College and Ohio State University and a master's degree from the University of Findlay, and noting prior service in the district in a related position. Shammy, who spoke after the vote, thanked the board and said he plans to return quickly to the district to emphasize nutritious, cost-effective meals and operational efficiencies. He introduced family members in the audience.

The board did not discuss salary detail beyond placing Shammy on the introductory administrative salary schedule and confirmed the position will be paid from the food-service fund rather than increasing general-fund payroll costs.
