(KNZA)--The South Brown County USD 430 Board of Education has approved a contract extension for the district’s superintendent
Following an executive session at this week’s regular meeting, the Board voted to extend the contract of Superintendent Jason Cline through the 2020-21 school year.
Cline has been with the district since July 2017.
The Board also filled several positions for the next school year. They include Cheryl Soderlund as a 1st grade teacher; Denise Thorpe as a 3rd grade teacher; Jeffrey Henning as transportation director/mechanic, and Amber Clement as Everest Middle School secretary.
In addition, Shelly Smith was hired as Horton High School head volleyball coach and Tori Mace as assistant volleyball coach for the 2019-20 school year.
The Board also accepted the resignation of 6th grade science/social studies teacher Carolyn Polston.
In other business, Horton High School Student Council sponsor Marla Hayden presented three logos to the Board for consideration.
Out of the three, the Board liked the logo that the Horton High School Booster Club is currently using but would like to see a few minor changes.
Hayden will bring back the updated logo in May and possibly have final approval at the June Board meeting.
Two of the three logos that were presented were created by a former student, Nathan Isaacs.
The Board also approved the purchase of a new reading curriculum for the next school year.
