JERSEY SHORE — A board policy that would change the order of the agenda was introduced at the Jersey Shore Area School Board’s meeting this week.

As introduced, the policy would be to delete old business, add unfinished business and place that on the agenda after the second courtesy of the floor at the end of the meeting.

Superintendent Dr. Brian Ulmer said that he had received some feedback on that particular change to the agenda.

“Since sending out the agenda, one piece of feedback that I did receive already is that unfinished business be moved to the beginning of the agenda,” Ulmer said.

“If there was something that was unfinished from a previous agenda, the person asked if we would consider moving that up to the beginning, so that we start with it,” he said.

The reasoning behind doing that, he said, was that in Robert’s Rules of Order, “if there’s something you’re hanging over from one meeting to the next, Robert’s Rules says it’s best to start there.”

The policy will be first voted on at the next meeting, April 28, and then a final vote will be taken in May.

Under personnel, the board accepted a letter of resignation from Cheryl Good, after 26 years on the food service staff at Jersey Shore Elementary School.

Other personnel actions included: transfers of Jennifer Frantz and Debra Hillyard from part time-food service position to a food service substitute position at $12.72 per hour; transfer of Sydney Johnson from a substitute food service position to a part-time food service position at $13.52 per hour; transfer of Katelyn Martin from a full-time second shift custodian position to a full-time first shift Warehouse Manager position at $15.77 per hour; transfer of Erin Bonsell from Middle School assistant principal to the high school assistant principal position with no change in salary; a temporary rate of $18.83 for Jaime Zimmerman for acting as the Middle School assistant head cook from April 24 through June 5 before transferring back to the Middle School Food Service position; the Memorandum of Understanding for a Dean of Students position for the remainder of the current school year; and a temporary hourly rate of $20.16 to Alexius Reighard for acting as the Middle School Head Cook April 24 to June 5 until transferred back to the Middle School Assistant Cook position.
