A group of 11 employees had their end-of-year retirement requests approved by the Neenah Joint School District Board of Education at its Feb. 2 meeting. The additional requests bring the total to 33 employees who will retire at the end of the school year.
Retirements were approved for Director of Curriculum and Instruction Susan Hull, high school teachers Vicki Dohr and Ben Christian, Shattuck teacher Shelley Kumbier, Clayton teachers Sarah Klein and Jamie Graves and elementary adaptive phy ed teacher David Farin. Operations staffers who had retirements approved were Ralph Hopfensperger at Clayton and David Rich at the high school. A Child’s Imagination educational assistant Wendy Pfankuch and District help desk technician Todd Hinzman also had retirements approved. An immediate resignation was approved for Taft educational/health assistant Samantha Perez. Taft cross categorical/health educational assistant Colleen Oppor will resign, effective Feb. 12, and Taft principal Lucille Hrib will resign at the end of the school year.
An application was approved for a waiver to the Department of Public Instruction in regards to the minutes requirement for the 2020-21 school year. This will protect the District should it be challenged on the hours of instruction.
Additionally, Lauri Asbury was voted as vice president through the end of April to replace Carol Hollar-Zwick, who recently resigned from the Board. Pete Kaul was selected to replace Asbury in the treasurer position. The meeting also marked the return of longtime Board member Scott Thompson, who was recently selected to fill Hollar-Zwick’s term for the remaining three months.
The next meeting is scheduled for Feb. 16 at 6 p.m.
