Board upholds three Level III grievances after hearings; disciplinary actions affirmed
Summary
After open and executive-session hearings, the Board upheld the superintendent's decisions in two grievances involving employee Karla Andrade (insubordination and attendance) and denied a grievance by KFACE President Lisa Danskin alleging cyberbullying; all votes were unanimous.
The Board voted to uphold the Superintendent's decisions on three Level III grievances heard during the June 8 meeting. In open session the Board upheld the grievance decision denying the insubordination grievance against classified employee Karla Andrade and upheld a separate grievance related to a three-day unpaid suspension for attendance and timeliness; both motions were moved by Kelsey Bitzer and seconded as recorded, and each passed by unanimous roll-call vote.
A third grievance, filed by KFACE President Lisa Danskin alleging a district communication during contract negotiations violated harassment and bullying policy (described in the record as a cyberbullying claim), was considered in executive session. Administration said the communication had been reviewed by legal counsel and was intended to address negotiation concerns; after deliberation the Board denied the grievance. Board records show the motions to uphold the superintendent's decisions carried with unanimous votes.
