Lindop SD 92 approves scores of hires for 2024–25, including teachers and support staff
Summary
Minutes from July 12 and a July 31 special meeting show the board approved multiple hires — classroom teachers, special-education staff, social workers and administrative assistants — with salaries and pending background checks noted in motions.
The Lindop School District 92 board approved a broad set of personnel actions in July as recorded in meeting minutes included in the Aug. 20 packet. Across the July 12 regular meeting and the July 31 special meeting the board approved hires for classroom teachers, special-education positions, social workers, school secretaries and other support roles. Salary figures and lane/step details were recorded in each motion.
Examples of approvals recorded in the minutes: - Tamara Whitfield, Executive Assistant to the Superintendent and Board — anticipated salary $75,000 plus a $5,000 Board Secretary stipend (pending background check). (Motion recorded: mover Mr. Buchanan; second Mrs. Williams-Wolford.) - Luke Tamm, 2/3 Grade Special Education Teacher/Case Manager — salary $49,509.50 (pending background check). - Kenneth Markovic, School Social Worker — salary $54,054.50 (pending background check). - From the July 31 special meeting: Josh Wang, Middle School Math Teacher — salary $68,114.50 (Lane MA+45 Step 11); Daniel Zwerling, P.E./Health Teacher — salary $50,009.50; Andrea Rogel, Pre-K Full Day Teacher — salary $48,009.50; Emily Mooney, Intervention — salary $56,834.50. Each hire was approved by voice vote, with motions and seconds recorded in the minutes.
The minutes record that these hires were all approved "pending successful background check" as the motions specify. The board used voice votes for the approvals; where recorded, abstentions and absences are noted in the minutes (for example, Mrs. Griffin is recorded as abstaining on the Whitfield hire). The packet does not include transcripts of substantive debate over individual candidates; the motions are recorded as routine personnel actions.
