Summary

A written note from a staffer said without a replacement cook the district may need to discontinue the high-school breakfast cart; the board voted to post a full-time kitchen assistant (assistant cook) to maintain service levels.

The board reviewed a written message from Tiffany explaining that if the district cannot fill the vacated kitchen role, Tiffany would need to split time between the kitchen and district office (about four hours each), risking discontinuation of the high-school breakfast cart and a likely drop in breakfast participation. The note emphasized increased paperwork and possible overtime requirements.

Board members moved to post the full-time assistant cook position and approved the motion by voice vote. "If we aren't able to fill this position, I will need to spend significantly more time working in the kitchen and less time in the district office," Tiffany's note said; the administration framed posting the role as necessary to maintain current service levels and operations.

Board members asked for applicants and expressed hope for candidates before school opening; the vacancy posting was approved and the board will accept applications for the position.
