Summary

The board approved a slate of recommended hires across grade levels and positions including elementary, sixth-grade math, fifth-grade ELA/social studies, elementary art, seventh-grade social studies and special education; each hire was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.

The board approved several administrative recommendations to fill teaching and support positions for the coming school year. Hires specifically named in the meeting record included Samantha Bricker Barr (elementary teacher), Hannah Patel Antel (6th-grade math), Emma Bedner (5th-grade ELA/social studies), Kayla Finau (elementary art), Chase Dawley (7th-grade social studies) and Janelle Belitsky (elementary special education).

Each hire was presented as an administrative recommendation, moved and seconded by board members (for example, the motion to hire Samantha Bricker Barr was moved by Jill and seconded by Savannah) and approved by voice vote. The superintendent said the district still has one preschool opening and a bus-driver vacancy, and staff are working to fill those positions before school starts.
