Board approves consent agenda including multiple staff hires; several resignations recorded
Summary
The board approved minutes, bills and a hiring slate that included certified, ancillary and athletic staff; separate resignations and retirements were also recorded. The consent agenda and hires were approved 5–0.
The Kalkaska Public Schools Board approved the consent agenda, which included minutes from prior meetings, payment of general, bond and athletic fund bills, and hiring of listed staff pending cleared background checks. The motion carried 5–0.
The minutes list new professional hires (e.g., Adam Wojdan, 7th Grade Social Studies – KMS; Zachary Ingersoll, Face to Face Teacher – KAP; Kelsea Creighton, 4th Grade Teacher – KUE; Rachel Warns, Chemistry/Physics Teacher – KHS) and ancillary/athletic hires including Steve Porter (Varsity Football Assistant Coach) and Pete Shetler (Head Varsity Boys’ Basketball Coach). The minutes also list resignations and retirements (e.g., Taren Moses, Zach Ingersoll, Chelsea Bassett, Joe Bainbridge, Emily Koski). Notably, the minutes contain two entries for Madison Wilkinson: an agenda amendment changing her assignment from GSRP to 5th grade teacher at KUE and a hire listing her as GSRP Preschool Teacher at ECLC and as Head JV Girls’ Basketball Coach; the minutes do not reconcile those entries. The board recorded the consent‑agenda vote as 5–0.
