Board approves slate of new hires, welcomes new John Long associate principal
Summary
The Grafton School District board approved multiple new hires including Ben Hegenbach as associate principal at John Long Middle School and several new teachers; Hegenbach was introduced in person during the meeting.
The Grafton School District board voted July 27 to approve a slate of new hires across district schools, including Ben Hegenbach as associate principal at John Long Middle School and multiple classroom teachers for Woodview and John Long.
Superintendent Nelson presented the personnel slate and introduced Hegenbach, noting he "is in attendance here this evening" and bringing more than a decade of middle school experience. The board then moved and voted to approve the hires by voice vote.
The approved hires named in the motion were Nicole Andristos (art teacher, Woodview Elementary School), Ben Hegenbach (associate principal, John Long Middle School), Erica Silverspeids (math teacher, John Long Middle School), Autumn Smith (2nd grade teacher, Woodview Elementary School) and Kayla Solczyk (kindergarten teacher, Woodview Elementary School). Nelson also listed additional informational hires and recent resignations; administration said some support-staff positions remain open.
Board members offered brief thanks and welcome remarks after the vote. The board recorded the action as an approvals motion; no roll-call tallies were provided in the transcript.
