Summary

The board approved an amendment to the educational support professional salary schedule and a new, grant-funded educational liaison job description (pay grade corrected to 28) that will be funded initially by the Education Foundation; both items passed unanimously.

The board approved two personnel items: an amendment to the 2026 educational support professional salary schedule and final adoption of a time‑limited, grant‑funded educational liaison job description.

Dr. Audrey Edwards described the liaison as a grant-funded, time-limited role focused on student voice, teacher supports and educator professional learning. "The educational liaison will serve as a dedicated catalyst for student empowerment and professional learning," she said, noting the position will be funded by the Education Foundation at the start of the 2026–27 school year and will carry no ongoing district financial obligation beyond the grant period.

Board members asked a clarifying question about the pay-grade notation; staff confirmed the job description's pay grade should read 28. Both items passed by unanimous vote 5–0.
