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.
