Darien SD 61 advances personnel hires and records retirements on amended consent agenda
Summary
The board approved multiple personnel items on the amended consent agenda, including new long-term substitutes, a technology support technician hire, and two retirements slated for June 30, 2026; an item was removed for separate consideration and the minutes were later amended and approved.
The board amended and approved the consent agenda that included personnel recommendations and financial reports. The consent agenda recorded hires: Maria Foret (long-term substitute for L. Hamelin & K. Soriano at Lace) effective 12-09-25; Carlee Salas (long-term substitute for N. Sandoval at Lace) effective 01-27-26; and Edith Lutz as Student Information Systems & Technology Support Technician for the district, effective 01-05-26. Retirements added to the consent agenda included Ronda Bangert-Cross (Assistant Principal, Lace) and Ginger Ladd (Secretary, Lace), both effective 06-30-26.
The minutes show the consent agenda was amended to remove Item A.1 for separate consideration; that amendment was motioned and approved. Later, board members moved and approved an amendment to the Nov. 18, 2025 meeting minutes (adding Gabriela Ceferin to the Board members present list, recognizing student Jibril Ahmed in Student Spotlight, and minor wording corrections) and adopted the amended minutes by roll-call vote.
