The McGuffey School District Board of Directors voted to extend the contract of athletics director Edward Dalton through the 2024–25 school year and accepted with regret a letter of intent to retire from Mrs. Karen Elely effective at the conclusion of the 2023–24 school year.
In the same motion series, the board approved hiring the district's listed 2024 spring sports coaches under the existing agreement between the McGuffey board and the McGuffey Education Association, pending receipt of required clearances and Act 168 verification. The motion carried with all members voting in favor except board member Andrew Kowski, who voted no.
The board also approved Jerry Walters as an additional driver for First Student for the 2023–24 school year, pending required clearances. All personnel actions were moved, seconded and carried during the meeting.
The personnel votes followed an executive-session report the board cited as covering personnel matters and possible litigation. No further details about individual coach assignments or internal personnel deliberations were disclosed during the public meeting.
