Motion by Mrs. Stidham, seconded by Mrs. Hightower, to approve the Superintendent’s recommendation for the administrative appointment of Carolyn Spooner, from Principal/Tate High to Director-High School Education, effective July 1, 2005, was unanimous. 

 Motion by Mrs. Hightower, seconded by Mr. Gindl, to approve the Superintendent’s recommendation for the administrative appointment of Glenna Taylor, from Assistant Director-Food Services to Director-School Food Services, effective July 1, 2005, was unanimous.  

Motion was made by Mrs. Hightower, seconded by Mrs. Stidham, to approve the Superintendent’s recommendation for the administrative appointment of Tama Vaughn from Assistant Elementary Principal/Cook Elementary to Principal/Blue Angels Elementary, effective July 1, 2005, was unanimous. 

Motion by Mrs. Stidham, seconded by Mrs. Hightower, to approve the Superintendent’s recommendation for the administrative appointment of Darriel White to Court Liaison, effective

July 1, 2005, was unanimous. 

 Mr. Bergosh requested a brief recess in order to confer with Mrs. Odom regarding issues with the Superintendent’s recommendation for the administrative appointment of Bill Slayton from Principal/Woodham High to Principal/George Stone Center.  Motion by Mrs. Stidham, seconded by Mrs. Hightower, to recess the Regular Meeting at 6:30 p.m., was approved unanimously. 

The Regular Meeting reconvened at 6:40 p.m., with all Board Members, the Superintendent and Mrs. Odom present. 

Mr. Bergosh stated that he and Mrs. Odom had determined that there could possibly be ambiguity in the Board policy regarding the two-week advertisement of professional/technical and administrative positions (other than senior staff).  After further discussion, the Superintendent stated that although he still believed he acted appropriately, he would withdraw his recommendation from the table and advertise the position for the full two-week period.  Mr. Bergosh indicated that he would be addressing the issue further with Mrs. Odom in order to clear up any ambiguity in that particular Board policy.  Upon inquiry by Mrs. Hightower, the Superintendent indicated that regardless of the withdrawn recommendation, Mr. Slayton was still under contract with the District and would continue to be paid.  He also indicated that he would bring forward recommendation for Mr. Slayton’s placement at the next Board meeting.

25.      Approve revised job descriptions:           

(a)                Administrator on Special Assignment-Overage Middle School Initiative to read Special Center Principal

Motion was made by Mrs. Stidham, seconded by Mrs. Hightower, to approve the revised job description of Administrator on Special Assignment-Overage Middle School Initiative to read Special Center Principal.  After some discussion, it was determined that the job title should actually read Special Center Principal-Overage Student Intensive Studies (OASIS) rather than Special Center Principal.  Mrs. Hightower offered a “friendly amendment” to approve the revised job description of Administrator on Special Assignment-Overage Middle School Initiative to read Special Center Principal-Overage Student Intensive Studies (OASIS).  Mrs. Stidham noted that the recommended paygrade for this position was paygrade 5, which was the same paygrade as an elementary school principal.  She disagreed with placing this position at the same paygrade as an elementary school principal, when “this individual is not going to be in charge of a facility because they are going to be placed on Woodham’s campus, they’re going to have only 75 students, and they’re going to have a lot of support with a dean; whereas, we have many elementary school principals that have no support – they don’t have any assistant principals because we eliminated the assistant principals at many of our elementary schools.”

Motion (as amended) was approved 4 to 1, with Mrs. Stidham voting “No.”    

(b)                Analyst-Network Systems

(c)                Director II-Comprehensive Planning, School Improvement & Grants Management

(d)                Director II-Systems Support to read Director II-Network Services

(e)                Special Center Principal (Escambia Westgate)

(f)                 Manager VIII-Technician-Inventory Control-Food Services to read Supervisory Technician I-School Food Services

(g)                School Food Services Technician to read Supervisory Dietitian

(h)                Specialist III-Inventory Control and Food Services to read Inventory Control Technician-School Food Services

(i)                  Support Personnel Recruiter for Food Services to read Support Personnel Recruiter-School Food Services

26.   Approve to establish the following job descriptions:

Motion by Mrs. Stidham, seconded by Dr. Glover, to approve the job descriptions as listed (Items a – h), was approved unanimously. 

(a)                Specialist I-Network Infrastructure to replace Technician III-Systems Support

(b)                Specialist I-Technology Training

(c)                Specialist II-Technology Training

(d)                Specialist I-Technology Support to replace Technician III-Instructional Technology Support

(f)                 Technician III-Technology Support to replace Technician III-Systems Support and Technician III-Instructional Technology Support

(g)                Technician IV-Technology Support to replace Technician IV-Systems Support

(h)                Technician III-TV and Video

27.   Approve to amend the following pages in the 2005-2006 Department Personnel Planning Document:

Motion was made by Mrs. Hightower, seconded by Mr. Gindl, to approve amendments to page 16, page 28 and page 29 of the 2005-2006 Department Personnel Planning Document, was unanimous.         

28.      Approve upgrade of the following personnel for the 2005-06 school year:
