Multiple Staffing Changes for Next Year
I wanted to make you aware of some staffing changes for next year. First Rom Anderson, second grade teacher, is retiring at the end of the year. Becky Holter, Instructional Coach, and Liz Twohig, fourth grade teacher, are heading closer to their respective homes. Finally, Kristina Olson, third grade teacher, will be filling the role of instructional coach.
We also have Amanda Aslakson, kindergarten teacher, moving up to second grade and Brigit Mortenson, first grade teacher moves up to 4th grade. We were also given a fourth section of second grade as our current first graders have four sections.
Therefore, we will be hiring for kindergarten, second and third grade positions. Normally, this information would be shared with you in the fall, but since we had so many changes I wanted you to be aware of them now.
