Superintendent Randy Fleenor rated "Effective"; board approves one-year extension, 3% raise and vacation payout

The Mattawan Consolidated School Board on June 8 completed a closed-session evaluation of Superintendent Randy Fleenor and approved an "Effective" summative rating before voting to amend his contract.

According to the meeting record, the board used the School Advance Administrator Evaluation System and considered a self-evaluation and supporting evidence provided by Superintendent Randy Fleenor. Following discussion in closed session, Rick George moved and Vickie Mabin-Herzberg seconded a motion to approve the evaluation with an "Effective" rating; the roll-call vote recorded six yes votes and one absence (Vice President Ted Roethlisberger). The board then approved a package of contract amendments: extend the contract by one year, award one-half year of merit pay because of an evaluation schedule change, approve a 3% base salary increase and authorize payment for up to seven unused vacation days from the 2025–2026 fiscal year only.

The motions were passed on roll call; the minutes show the board directed Human Resources and payroll to process the approved amendments. The meeting record does not specify the superintendent's base salary before the 3% increase, the dollar amount of the merit pay, or the net fiscal impact of the vacation payout; those figures were not provided in the transcript and are therefore not stated here.

The board reconvened after the closed session and completed the remainder of the agenda before adjourning at 10:21 a.m.
