Board signs off on multiple hires and coach contract extensions, including Jason Burton and Christie Sigler
Summary
The board approved a slate of professional and support staff hires, several coaching appointments, and contract extensions for head coaches (Jason Burton, Travis Reitzman, Christie Sigler), with all personnel motions passing unanimously at the meeting.
District staff read a list of recommended professional and support hires across the district and the board approved the slate as presented. The approved items included classroom paraeducators, coaches, a nurse, cafeteria staff, and other school-based positions; staff said some positions are grant-funded where appropriate.
The board also approved contract extensions and appointments for multiple coaches. Staff requested a contract extension for Jason Burton as Jennings County High School head football coach "through the 2728 school year," and the board approved the extension unanimously. Similarly, staff recommended Travis Reitzman as the head boys basketball coach through the same 2728 school year and Christie Sigler as head girls basketball coach with a contract extension; both motions carried.
During the personnel recognitions, newly approved Jennings County High School welding teacher Steven Wells stood and introduced himself and family to the board. "I'm Steven Wells," he said when recognized by the board and welcomed by staff.
All personnel motions and contract approvals were moved, seconded and recorded as unanimous for the items presented at this meeting.
