The board approved a personnel report that included new classified hires, several resignations effective Nov. 1, 2024, and extra-duty coach appointments. HR Director Kevin Dinning detailed staffing changes since 2019-20 and funding sources for paraprofessionals.

Human Resources Director Kevin Dinning presented the personnel report at the Oct. 8 work session that listed new classified hires (Jennifer Henderer, paraprofessional; Gaige Futter, custodian), planned resignations (effective 11/1/2024: Rayella Walker as Maintenance/Custodial Lead) and other recent departures. Dinning said the district has added 14 certified positions since 2019–20 and added two elementary assistant principals in 2021–22 despite an approximate 200-student enrollment decline over five years.
