A special meeting was called by the Weatherly Area School Board tonight, to approve the resignation of board member and Treasurer Shay McGee. She resigned as of June 12. Board members propose to appoint Nancy Mulvaney to fill the vacancy created by McGee’s resignation, serving through the end of 2021.

The board will select a new treasurer. The position comes with a $500 stipend.

Another key resignation on the agenda is that of Vice Principal James Hearne, effective June 30.

Kim Reigle, library paraprofessional, retired on June 23.

The special meeting agenda lists votes to approve contracts between Behavioral Health Associates and the Weatherly Area School District for the 2021-2022 school year, and the agreement with Advantage Edge Services to prepare the Emergency Connectivity Fund application for the Weatherly school district.

Some work around the district’s buildings is to be approved, starting with hiring Thomas Kitchens to complete the refinishing of all cabinets and countertops in the Middle School Art Room at a cost of $7,525. Heckman Construction & Contracting is being hired to re-point the bricks on the gymnasium wall (above the regular school roof) at a cost of $26,450. An agreement with Buck Mountain Landscape Supply to remove trees and stumps along the alley by the girls softball field and the pre-K playground is also to be approved. All three of these projects will be paid for from the construction funds.

No regular school board meetings are scheduled for July. The board will meet again Aug. 4 and 11, on its regular monthly schedule.
