Board approves coaches, driver’s-ed teacher and facilities use; student awards noted
Summary
The board approved junior-high track coach appointments, named a driver’s education teacher and granted school-building use for a bow-hunters education program; the meeting also highlighted student BPA successes and several grants and field trips.
The Lincoln K-12 Schools board approved several personnel appointments and a facilities-use request and heard staff report on student accomplishments.
The superintendent recommended Peyton Peterson as junior-high head track coach and Nathan Brown as the assistant; the board moved and seconded approval for both appointments and set junior-high track practice to begin March 24.
The board also approved George Pierce as the district’s driver’s education teacher; the transcript records salary amounts inconsistently (one mention of $5,500 and a later reference to $9,500), but the motion to hire Pierce carried on a voice vote.
The board granted use of a school building for a bow-hunters education program after a motion and second on the record.
Separately, staff reported competitive student successes at the BPA state competition (14 qualifiers; Remy Dietz placed third in an individual presentation; Elijah Barnett won a state testing event) and described mini-grants that funded field trips to the Spectrum Science Center and the Insectarium.
Why it matters: personnel approvals finalize teacher and coach assignments that affect program delivery and extracurricular opportunities. The driver’s-education hire and coaches appointments will shape upcoming semesters’ offerings and student access to programs.
Next steps: personnel paperwork and signatures to be completed; staff to reconcile the driver's-ed salary discrepancy and file final appointment records.
