Fairfield board approves hires, transfers and $3,000 stipends for three staff members

At its June 12 meeting the Fairfield Community Schools Board approved a slate of personnel actions including resignations, transfers, appointments, substitute certifications and stipends recognizing additional responsibilities for three staff members.
The consent agenda — approved by motion of Tyler Rensberger and seconded by Sarah Elledge — listed multiple resignations (for example, Kayla Jasso, Allison Schrock, Chelsea Saleh and others), transfers and new employments. Notable new employments included Jesse Torres as assistant band director; Julia Zusi as assistant choir director; Kyle Hartman as physical education and middle school computer science teacher; and several extracurricular and summer-school positions. A dismissal of employment for an employee identified in the minutes as Employee 3298 was also recorded under consent items.
The board approved a $3,000 stipend for Jason Grasty “in recognition of the significant increase of responsibilities he has taken on this year” on a motion by Brian Wogoman, seconded by Aaron Rink. Identical $3,000 stipends were approved for Nicholas (Nick) Jones (motion by Tyler Rensberger, seconded by Sarah Elledge) and for Adam Tomlinson (motion by Brian Wogoman, seconded by Aaron Rink). Each stipend motion passed unanimously.
The minutes show multiple additional staffing transactions, including employment of summer help, classroom substitutes, and updates to extracurricular assignments. Supplemental signatures show supplemental teacher and extracurricular contracts were signed after the meeting. The minutes do not attach individual employment contracts or specify the recurring nature of the stipends beyond the June 12 action.
