Tucker County Schools board approves agenda, hires custodian and countywide ticket taker
Summary
At a regular meeting, the Tucker County Schools board approved the meeting agenda, accepted a recommendation to hire Alicia Bennett as a custodian at TCHS effective Jan. 6, 2026, and approved hiring Debbie Hatfield as a countywide ticket taker effective the same date. The board set its next meeting for Jan. 20, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. at the board office.
The Tucker County Schools board approved its meeting agenda and accepted two personnel recommendations at a session documented in the transcript.
Staff member recommended "Alicia Bennett, custodian at TCHS, effective 01/06/2026," and a motion to approve the recommendation was made and seconded, after which the chair recorded the motion as passing. The transcript records the vote on that personnel motion as "Passes 5 0." The staff member also noted the custodian hire will create a cook vacancy at Tucker Valley that will be posted.
Separately, the staff member presented an extracurricular employment recommendation for "Debbie Hatfield, ticket taker, county wide, effective 01/06/2026." That recommendation was moved and seconded; the transcript includes the chair asking, "All in favor?" but does not record a numeric tally for that vote in the transcript.
Earlier in the meeting the chair asked whether there were any questions about pre-events from the previous meeting and moved to approve the agenda (referred to in the transcript as the "SIP agenda"). The transcript records: "in favor to approve the SIP agenda. Passes with 5 0 1." The transcript does not clarify the meaning of each figure in that shorthand tally.
The board confirmed its next regular meeting will be held Jan. 20, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. at the board office.
The meeting included brief informal remarks about insurance and other matters that appear conversational in the transcript; those remarks did not result in recorded formal actions in the provided segments.
