Board approves hires, recognizes retirees and updates teacher pay cadence
Summary
Trustees approved a slate of classified hires and certified teacher hires (including a 6–12 science hire and a high‑school English hire), recognized two long‑time classified retirees, and approved changes to teacher pay and other CBA updates tied to new state legislation.
The board approved hiring for multiple classified positions and several certified teaching hires after administrators read candidate summaries and recommendation notes into the record. The board recognized two longtime classified employees, Sheila Martin and Yolanda Ivy, for their service to special education students before approving the hires.
Administrators presented updates to the certified collective bargaining agreement to align with the STARS Act teacher minimum salaries, increase per‑diem pay from $100 to $120, and move teacher pay to twice per month; the board approved those CBA updates. Mr. Slater introduced the recommended 6–12 science hire, praising the candidate: “Kayla was outstanding… one of the top interviews I've had,” and the board subsequently approved both the science and the high‑school English hires.
