Union SD 5 board accepts resignation and approves multiple coaching and teaching hires
Summary
The Union School District 5 board accepted a letter of resignation and approved a slate of coaching and teaching hires, including Mackenzie Sheehy, Travis Miller and Dan Davenport, in a single voice vote at the May meeting.
The Union School District 5 board accepted a resignation and approved several recommended hires during its regular meeting. Chair (speaker 2) read a letter identified as concerning Harold Wyatt and signed 'Caroline' that stated the employee will relocate to Colorado and be available to assist with transition at the completion of the 2024–25 school year. The board moved and—by voice vote—approved accepting the resignation.
The board also approved multiple coaching and teaching recommendations presented in written letters from athletic staff and interview committees. Chair read recommendations for Mackenzie Sheehy to serve as junior‑high head track coach and high‑school head cross‑country coach, Travis Miller as head varsity football coach, and Dan Davenport for an assistant football/track role. The board also approved hires for classroom positions, including Jonathan Wilson (math) and Haley Bradley (language arts). "We feel fortunate that she is willing to take on this position," the letter recommending Sheehy stated, as read into the record by the Chair.
Board members discussed that some recommendation letters contained small editorial corrections (one letter originally referenced the wrong sport) before voting. A motion to accept the resignation and the hiring slate was made and the Chair announced it was "Approved." The transcript records a voice approval but does not include a roll‑call with individual vote names.
Next steps: the board will finalize contracts and complete hiring paperwork as part of normal personnel processes.
