Parents raise concerns about superintendent candidate at Union Township board meeting
Summary
During public comment at the April 21 special meeting, two parents expressed concerns about the superintendent candidate's history; the minutes record the comments but do not detail the allegations or any public board response before the board held an executive session on personnel.
Two parents used the public comment period at the Union Township Board of Education special meeting on April 21 to state concerns about the candidate chosen for the new superintendent, citing the candidate's history. The minutes record the comments but do not provide details of those concerns or verbatim quotations.
The board subsequently moved into executive session under the Open Public Meetings Act to discuss confidential personnel matters and reconvened in public session about 18 minutes later. The public minutes do not record a public response to the parents' allegations; the board then approved the personnel resolution to employ the candidate and adjourned the meeting.
The minutes name the candidate as Dr. Lisa M. Antunes and note the employment contract will be placed on file with the board secretary and made available for public inspection.
