Board hires summer instructors, approves therapy contract and staff pay increases
Summary
After a closed session, the board approved hiring two TCE summer instructors, a speech and language contract with Angel Schmidt of Go Midwest Therapy (one abstention), and multiple compensation changes including a $1,500 professional staff step increase and a starting teacher salary set at $47,000.
The Boyceville Board reconvened May 20 at 8:00 p.m. and approved personnel actions discussed in closed session. Jessie Olson moved to hire Meghan Olson as TCE Summer School Lead Instructor and Ali Fentress as TCE Summer School Reading Instructor; both motions carried unanimously.
The board approved a speech and language services contract with Angel Schmidt of Go Midwest Therapy; the motion passed with a 4-0 vote and Stacy Fetzer recorded an abstention due to a conflict of interest. The board also approved individual teacher compensation adjustments and a professional staff $1,500 step increase, with the motion recording the starting teacher salary set at $47,000. A subsequent motion approved additional compensation recommendations for administration and support staff, including a 3% increase for Administration/District Office Support, an increase for the Food Service Director to $55,000, a $1.00/hour support staff increase, a $975 base pay increase for bus drivers, and a $0.50/hour increase to support staff starting pay.
Why it matters: these actions set the district’s pay scales and summer staffing for 2026–27 and authorize a contractor to provide speech and language services.
