In addition to the previously announced promotion of Jacob Williams to the newly-created middle school athletic director position, the board hired its former Director of Special Services Janet Earl, as an interim assistant director of student services "due to critical shortage" according to the minutes.
It can be difficult when there is a critical shortage of assistant directors of special services.
Teachers hired were Krista Ideker, Melissa Kendall, Melissa Miller and Alex Smith.
Classied employees hired were Kayla Barnhart, Meagan Brashar, Jay Brubaker, Brittney Burns, Connie Castellanos, Wayne Crandell, Sarah Crossley, Larry Enlow, Andrea Griffith, Susan Haley, Terry Henson, Kelsey Hounshell, Ashley Intessimone, Lisa Jones, Heather Kahraman, Jalyn Ledford, Debra Merman, Holly Parks, Jamie Rawlings, Mark Rhodes, Waylen Tuggle, Bethany Walles and Denisa Simpson.
Resignations were accepted from Leslie Gann and Jacqueline Voss.
Dear Mendy,
ReplyDeleteBy hiring Williams and Earl, you are showing Joplin you are not being fiscally responsible. I am very disappointed. You got some bad advice here.
Middle school athletic director must have been Steve's idea. Sped dept NEEDS Janet to fix problems w activating IEPs bc Barlass was unable to fix. Process coordinators did his job.
ReplyDeletePoor sped secretaries were probably the scape goats for that. Congrats Leslie, whether you're retiring or moving to better pay.
Middle school athletic director was created from the "assistant athletic director" position so it was necessarily newly created just renamed...
ReplyDeleteJanet Earl has been hired to clean up the mess left by Barlass and . She was also there before to train Cantwell since she doesn't have a clue--just like Lisa Orem.
