Summary

The district reported a high-school math teacher vacancy; an interim teacher (Robin Murphy) will cover the remainder of the year and the board approved a new 6–12 math curriculum after completing the adoption process.

Board members discussed a recent resignation in the high-school math position and the district’s response. Speaker 2 said a candidate was interviewed but a 'red flag' emerged during vetting, so the district did not proceed with that hire. "Now we have Robin for the remainder of the year," speaker 2 said, noting Robin Murphy is covering classes while the position is reposted.

Speaker 2 also reported that the district completed the mathematics adoption process and selected a new curriculum for grades 6–12. The adoption was presented as a finalized decision; board members asked about planning and scheduling to ensure students do not miss instruction while the interim staffing and curriculum roll-out occur.

Members emphasized monitoring classroom planning to limit further disruption. No specific vendor or curriculum title was read into the record during the meeting transcript.
