Board approves tenure, hires and two position eliminations amid staffing changes
Summary
The board approved tenure for two staff effective Jan. 4, 2026, several hires and substitutes, accepted a resignation, and adopted two reductions in force effective Jan. 9, 2026, citing lack of student need and economy factors.
The Woodland Park Board of Education approved multiple personnel actions by single roll-call motion (agenda numbers 226-185 through 226-198). Tenure was approved for Patrycja Rogacki (payroll & bookkeeping clerk) and Dawn Maxwell (secretary at CO) effective Jan. 4, 2026.
