Current Board Meeting Report
Superintendent Report, March 20, 2023
Items of Interest:
Precautionary Plan Overview:
Archbold Area Schools received approval of the Precautionary Plan Workbook and Narrative from the Ohio Department of Education on Tuesday, March 14.
Spelling Bee Participants:
Congratulations to all the students and their families on the success of each individual who participated in the 2023 Fulton County Spelling Bee.
Retirements:
As part of the agenda, the board will be approving the retirement of Kathy Breeding. Kathy has been an integral part of the district and friend of the middle school students for 46 years. We thank Kathy for her years of service and wish her happiness in retirement.
Retirement Incentive Memorandum of Understanding:
Last week the Archbold Education Association approved the Retirement Incentive MOU and tonight we are seeking the approval of the Archbold Board of Education. Upon approval and effective immediately, all certified staff members will have the opportunity to retire and take advantage of an opportunity to be rehired in the same position for one additional year. The AEA and board believe this opportunity is one that will offer unique opportunities to potential retirees while offering the district potential financial savings. I would like to thank Shawn Grime and the members of the AEA for working with the board on what we believe offers a mutually beneficial opportunity.
