Warren Local board terminates mechanic after allegations of assault, leave falsification and unreturned property
Summary
The board voted to terminate mechanic Shane Floyd effective immediately after the superintendent recommended termination citing an incident with the Transportation Supervisor (charged under Ohio Revised Code sections cited), alleged striking, falsified sick leave, no-call/no-show dates, and failure to return district keys and equipment.
The Warren Local Board of Education voted June 25 to terminate the employment contract of mechanic Shane Floyd effective immediately following the Superintendent's recommendation and a board resolution. The resolution lists multiple grounds asserted by the administration, including involvement in an incident with the Transportation Supervisor that resulted in charges under Ohio Revised Code Sections 2903.13(A) and 2905.04(A), an allegation that Floyd physically struck the Transportation Supervisor, falsification of sick leave for May 4'8, no-call/no-show on May 11 and 12, and possession of specified district property (a bus garage key and two Milwaukee batteries and a chainsaw) that he failed to return despite directives.
The board framed the termination as based on incompetency, inefficiency, dishonesty, insubordination, discourteous treatment of the public, neglect of duty, and related allegations as listed in RES. NO. 53-26. The resolution authorized the Treasurer to enter the decision in the official minutes and to provide written notice to Floyd; the board's roll call on the termination recorded four yes votes with one member absent. The transcript does not record a response from Floyd during the meeting; no appeal or hearing outcome beyond the board action was recorded.
