Board approves contracts, new hires and treasurer appointment
Summary
The board approved a slate of personnel actions for 2026–27 including one‑year limited contracts, substitute and supplemental contracts, appointment of a treasurer effective August 2026, and introduced two new teachers.
The Waterloo Board of Education approved multiple personnel and contract items for the 2026–27 school year, including one‑year limited contracts contingent on state eligibility, substitute contracts, auxiliary and supplemental contracts, and an appointment for treasurer effective August 2026.
Superintendent presented the recommended personnel slate and introduced two new hires: "This is Jackson. Jackson is gonna be our high school social studies teacher," and "Kendall is gonna be intervention specialist for us," and the board welcomed them. The board also moved to approve substitute contracts for the coming school year and discussed compensation practices for substitutes and aides.
In a separate motion the board approved naming an individual to serve as treasurer effective August 2026; the person (John) was introduced during the meeting. Several routine financial motions and transfers were voted on and the board approved contracts for services with district vendors for the 2026–27 year.
Why it matters: Approving these personnel and finance items sets staffing and administrative authority for the coming school year and ensures essential services — from classroom coverage to payroll and financial operations — are authorized.
Next steps: Human resources and the treasurer’s office will finalize contracts and begin onboarding; the board asked staff to continue tracking substitute usage and related costs.
