The Vermilion Local School District Board of Education on April 24 accepted the resignation of Centerway Middle School Principal Beth Bartleme, effective June 26, 2024, and approved a continuing contract for a librarian/media specialist that the superintendent said would begin Aug. 16, 2024.
Under the superintendent's report, the superintendent recommended "a resolution for the board to accept the resignation of Beth Bartleme, principal of SMS, Center of Centerway Middle School, effective 06/26/2024," and the board moved and seconded the recommendation. The board then conducted a roll-call vote; the transcript records five "yes" responses and shows the motion was approved.
The superintendent also recommended approval of a continuing contract for a librarian/media specialist. In the superintendent's words: "I recommend the resolution for the board to approve Beth Bartlemy librarian slash media specialist, with a continuing contract beginning 04/16/2024. August. I'm sorry, August. 08/16/2024 That's step 23 at masters plus 3 or plus 30 hours." The board moved and seconded that resolution and, after roll call, recorded five "yes" votes; the motion carried.
The meeting record does not specify the individuals who moved and seconded either motion. The roll-call exchanges in the transcript list vocal confirmations and affirmative votes (recorded as "yes") for the board but do not consistently attribute each vocal response to a specific named board member; the record shows the following names during roll call and votes: Mrs. Innes (also later rendered as "Missus Ennis" in the transcript), Mrs. Russell, Mrs. Stepp and Mr. Benson. The transcript also includes two variants of the staff member's name: "Beth Bartleme" in the resignation item and "Beth Bartlemy" in the employment item; the board's actions as recorded approved the resignation and the continuing contract as described in the superintendent's recommendations.
No public comments on the agenda items were recorded. The chair moved to adjourn, the board voted yes, and the meeting was adjourned at 7:33 PM.
What happens next: The resigning principal's last day is recorded as June 26, 2024, in the board action. The librarian/media specialist contract was approved with the start date noted as Aug. 16, 2024, and the transcript references placement at "step 23" and a master's-plus-hours salary placement; the full contract details (salary number, annual amount) are not specified in the spoken record and are not included in the minutes recorded in the transcript.
