Board approves interim principal, hires cafeteria worker and honors Acting Superintendent Pedigree
At its March 14 session the Blackhawk School District Board approved a slate of personnel actions and adopted a resolution recognizing Dr. William G. Pedigree for his service as Acting Superintendent.

The board approved Phil Mackin as interim high‑school principal (effective March 5) with an additional $75 per day in addition to his regular salary. The board also approved hiring Melissa Hall as a part‑time cafeteria worker at $10.68 per hour beginning March 15, 2024, pending required clearances. Both motions were moved, seconded and carried by the members present.

The board also approved an extension of Dr. Pedigree’s role as an educational consultant through March 22, 2024, to assist with transition work. The board read a formal resolution of appreciation recognizing Dr. Pedigree’s service since June 2023, praising his leadership, mentorship and contributions to the district; those remarks were followed by applause.

Board members and staff offered brief remarks thanking Dr. Pedigree and wishing him well in retirement. No additional employment‑contract financial details beyond the daily stipend for the interim principal and the hourly rate for the cafeteria hire were discussed on the public record.
