Georgetown‑Ridge Farm board approves multiple HR personnel actions; assistant superintendent benefits pass 6–1
Summary
The school board approved a package of human-resources actions including rolling one‑year contracts for building leaders and paid health benefits for the assistant superintendent; the benefits vote was 6–1. The motion was moved by Greg Emmert and seconded by Lori Starwalt.
The Georgetown‑Ridge Farm Community Unit District #4 board approved a package of human-resources personnel actions on April 21, 2025, after a motion from board member Greg Emmert.
Emmert moved a consolidated human-resources motion covering "Human Resources: Employments, Employment Changes, Leaves of Absence, Resignations, Retirements, Extracurricular Assignments/Changes," which Lori Starwalt seconded. The motion included approvals for principals, assistant principals and the Director of Student Services to "maintain a rolling one year contract with a Proficient rating," and sought approval of paid health benefits for the assistant superintendent. "Human Resources: Employments, Employment Changes, Leaves of Absence, Resignations, Retirements, Extracurricular Assignments/Changes," the motion text shows.
On the assistant-superintendent benefits item, the minutes record a roll-call vote: Cathy Jenkins, Greg Emmert, Lori Starwalt, Mark Learnard, Hilah O’Neal and Ange Carlton voted yes; Nancy Dalenberg voted no. The minutes state "Motion Carried." The minutes do not list dollar amounts, specific benefit plans, or the names of the individual principals or assistant principals affected.
The board’s action distinguishes between personnel approvals (the rolling one‑year contracts subject to a Proficient rating) and adoption of benefits for the assistant superintendent; the latter was decided by recorded roll call and stands as a formal board decision. The board adjourned later in the evening at 8:30 p.m.
