The St. John the Baptist Parish School Board voted Feb. 8 to adopt a new organizational chart recommended by Lean Frog and to approve a package of new and revised administrative job descriptions presented by Dr. Kim Johnson and Superintendent Dr. Cleo Perry.
Board member DeFrancesch moved to approve the Lean Frog organizational chart; Vicknair seconded, and the motion passed on a roll call of 10 yeas and 1 absent. Dr. Perry framed the item as part of a planned reorganization following prior staffing reviews.
In a series of consecutive agenda items, the board approved job descriptions for multiple senior and supervisory positions. Approved positions included Chief Operating Officer and Chief Academic Officer; Director of Risk Management and Strategic Initiatives; Chief of Staff; Coordinator of Safety and Security; Director of Special Education; Director of Compliance and Special Education Services; Director of Student Services; Supervisor of Secondary Education (grades 6–12); Supervisor of Elementary Education (K–5); Transportation Supervisor; Human Resources Generalist; Director of Data and Accountability; Supervisor of Secondary SPED Services and LEAP Connect programming; Supervisor of Special Education Services (PreK and elementary); Pupil Appraisal/Child Search Supervisor; Supervisor of Special Services and IEPs; and IEP Coordinator.
Most of the job-description motions were moved and seconded by board members and approved by roll call votes. Several votes recorded a single abstention by Mr. Burl on multiple personnel items; other items passed unanimously or with the standard majority. During the IEP Coordinator item, public commenter Yevette Scioneaux addressed the board before the motion was approved.
The board did not discuss specific salary totals for most positions on the record; job descriptions were presented as part of a package intended to clarify duties and align reporting lines under the new chart. Dr. Perry thanked the board for its support after the approvals.
The approvals take effect as personnel processes move forward; the board did not vote on hiring individuals for these roles during the meeting. Next steps were not specified in the meeting materials provided.
