Board creates regular protocol for honoring retirees after years of ad‑hoc recognitions
Summary
The board honored nine retirees from 2025–26 and agreed to adopt a protocol to recognize retirees on a school‑year basis (June group recognition) with summer retirees recognized in September to avoid omissions.
The board opened the meeting by recognizing nine employees who retired or will retire in 2025 and 2026 and presented certificates of appreciation. "Tonight, we have the privilege of recognizing 9 individuals whose dedication, hard work, and commitment have helped shape our school district," the board president said as names were read and recipients came forward.
Board members also discussed creating a standing protocol for future recognitions so retirees are not missed. Members proposed recognizing retirees by school year in June and honoring those who retire over the summer at the September meeting, while another option discussed was recognizing each retiree in the month after retirement. The board reached consensus to use the school‑year June recognition with summer retirees acknowledged at the first fall meeting; staff was asked to draft the formal protocol for a future agenda.
