Tannehill board approves ten certified hires for 2026–27, tables one candidate
Summary
The board individually approved employment for ten certified staff for the 2026–2027 school year and tabled the hiring of Brenda Booth for further discussion at the next meeting; all recorded approvals were 3-0 votes.
Following an executive session held under Title 25 O.S. §307, the Tannehill board returned to open session and then took individual votes to employ certified staff for the 2026–2027 school year. Approved by recorded votes were Molly Painter, Vanessa Dawson, Sydney Pingleton, Karen Johnson, Tammy Collins, Jana Weeks, Masen Taylor, Keaton Nelms, Kaleb Swboni and Stephanie Roberts.
The minutes record repeated procedural motions: for example, "Motion made by Cuenod second by Freeburg to approve the employment for the 2026-2027 school year for Molly Painter" and similar motions for other listed candidates. Each approval is recorded as carried 3-0 (Cuenod yes; Freeburg yes; Perry yes). The hiring of Brenda Booth was tabled for further discussion at the next meeting; that motion to table was recorded as carried 3-0.
The minutes include Attachment A listing the certified staff names but do not include job descriptions, grades, salaries, or contract terms for the hires; the board’s action authorizes administration to proceed with employment offers and any required paperwork.
