Board acknowledges health-aide resignation, approves multiple hires and stipend
Summary
The Clinton School Board acknowledged the resignation of health aide Jessica Erwin effective 2026-04-17 and approved a stipend for Michelle Aske and several hires for the 2026-27 school year, including Wendy Swanson and Sarah O'Neil. Motions carried by voice vote; one hiring item has an unclear recorded tally in the transcript.
The Clinton School Board on the record acknowledged the resignation of health aide Jessica Erwin, effective April 17, 2026, and approved a slate of personnel actions for the coming school year.
Board members moved and approved a stipend for Michelle Aske to cover health-aide duties from April 20 through June 4, 2026, and for the 2026-27 school year. The board also approved hiring Wendy Swanson for the ASD/ASP program and named Sarah O'Neil as a co-director of the district's ASP program for 2026-27. Chair said, "All in favor, say aye," and members responded with voice votes on each motion.
One motion to hire Melissa Halgren as head volleyball coach appears in the transcript alongside repeated, likely erroneous, "Not aye" lines; the provided record does not show a clear final tally for that item. The board approved hiring Kara Lapke as assistant soccer coach for 2026-27 after some on-the-record name clarification.
The motions were presented sequentially during the new-business portion of the meeting and were moved, seconded and put to a voice vote by the chair. The transcript records the motions and affirmative voice votes for the stipend and most hires; where the transcript shows inconsistent fragments (see note on the volleyball-hire recording), the article reports the uncertainty rather than assuming an outcome.
