School board delays decision on resignation of employe The Shelton School Board, after a lengthy meeting Tuesday night, voted to accept one teacher resignation which had been submitted but tabled a second until the August meeting when the three board members present were unable to agree on acceptance of the resignation. The resignation which was questioned was that of Dr. Richard Montgomery, a counselor at the high school. At the time of the vote on the resignation, Board Chairman Dr. George Radich and board members Vicki Conley and William Maxwell were present. Dr. Mark Trucksess, who had attended part of the meeting, had left to attend a patient at the hospital by the time the vote came. Mrs. Conley made a motion to accept the resignation, which died for a lack of a second. Maxwell then made a motion to ask Dr. Montgomery to reconsider the recommendation. This also died for lack of a second. After further discussion, mostly in executive session, with the motion and vote in open session, Mrs. Conley again made her motion to accept the resignation, which Maxwell seconded. She voted for the motion and he against with the tie unbroken, when Radich declined to cast a vote either way. A motion to table action on the resignation then received unanimous support. The board voted to accept the resignation of Timothy Murphy. The board voted to hire Allan Hughes, presently a vice-principal in Kennewick, as principal of Evergreen Elementary School. Other new teachers hired on the recommendation of Superintendent Louis Grinnell are Sue Johnson, presently a halftime kindergarten teacher, as a full-time teacher; Richard Childs, NJROTC in the high school; Pete Havens, industrial arts in the high school; Margareta Schmidt, district nurse; and Mark Larson and Kathleen Hedges, elementary teachers. The board voted to accept the recommendation of high school administrators to accept the bid of Jolmson-American Yearbook Company for printing the yearbook for the lugh school next year. The Johnson bid was $7,966, which was the second low of three received. The approval was given subject to approval of the attorney. The board approved several instructional materials for the high school which had not been ready for consideration by the instructional materials committee before school was out. The board deferred to its August meeting a recommendation not to have the high school carpentry class construct a house next year but to have them work on a playshed at Bordeaux School and an addition to the fieldhouse at the high school. The Veterans of Foreizn Wars, which had co-sponsored the house construction project t'or many years, notified the district this year it was dropping sponsorship. The board had an offer from the Skookum Rotary Club to assume the sponsorship trader a different project arrangemenl. This will be considered during the coming year, if lhe recommendation for no IIOtlSC this year is approved. The board, after a question from Joe Snyder, a member of the audience, voted to change a proposed board policy on receiving oral complaints about school personnel. The policy stated the board will not receive oral complaints about personnel at the board meeting but anyone with such a complaint will submit it in writing to a member of the board, who will then refer il to the chairma, and superintendent as appropriate.
