Summary

The board approved hiring three paraprofessionals after the administration presented a broadened applicant pool and recommended Susan Buntton, Miss Wayne and Mr. Clawson for the roles.

The Whitehall School District trustees voted to hire paraprofessionals recommended by district staff.

Curtis described a widened applicant pool sourced through online advertising and recommended three candidates: Susan Buntton, who brings teaching experience from Texas and Nevada; Miss Wayne, who has worked with children and is pursuing a teaching career; and Mr. Clawson, a recent Whitehall graduate participating in the district's "grow your own" recruitment program.

A trustee moved and a second was recorded; the motion to hire the paraprofessionals passed by voice vote.

The district indicated it will enroll the new staff in paraprofessional orientation and development pathways once hiring paperwork is complete.
