(KLZA)-- The Falls City Board of Education approved the resignation of School Psychologist and Early Childhood Teacher Clarissa Ross when they met Monday evening.
Employment contracts for Lisa Pierce as the School Psychologist and Tabitha Nelson as a Middle School Special Education Teacher were approved for the 2025-26 school year.
The Board also approved the University of Nebraska at Lincoln's Extension Assistant funding Commitment at a cost of approximately $9,910 which is 12% of the salary for the position.
In other business. the Board heard an update on Master Facility Planning.
The board and administrative team are looking at the viability of the long-term impacts of potential grade-level reconfiguration.
The initial assessments have revealed that Falls City High School may be more readily flexible for housing grades 7 - 12 with the elementary and middle school buildings creating a more complex set of logistical challenges. Those would include efficiency in classroom space, specialized program areas, age-appropriate playgrounds and ADA access and staffing alignment.
It has become clear to the team that additional time and analysis will be required to develop a comprehensive and responsible recommendation.
