Board approves personnel items; district welcomes new IT director Jim Lovett
Summary
The board approved instructional and support personnel changes, welcomed new hires including IT director Jim Lovett, and discussed transportation and staffing concerns; both personnel motions passed on voice votes (6–0).
The board reviewed instructional personnel items and support‑staff appointments. Human resources and administrative staff clarified that many listings are annual temporary positions rather than brand new full‑time hires; changes include a music teacher moving from 1.9 to 1.0 FTE and several support hires to fill essential roles.
Jim Lovett introduced himself to the board: "My name is Jim Lovett. I am a 1996 graduate of South Colony. I am the IT director in the district," and district leaders also welcomed Kevin Brown as an information technology specialist. Motions to approve instructional and support personnel changes were passed on voice votes (both recorded as 6–0). Administrators noted ongoing efforts to recruit mechanics for transportation and to finalize start dates for new staff.
