CALHOUN SCHOOLS VENTURE WITH GLENVILLE STATE - Personnel Issue And Citizen Appeal Addressed |
| (09/16/2003) |
| Calhoun Schools signed an agreement yesterday with a Glenville State
College project which is expected to provide science, math and technical
education to local students.
Taylor said the project is linked to GLOBE, a worldwide program involving 12,000 schools and one million primary and secondary students. Grantsville resident Joan Dawson declined an executive session to discuss her personnel issues at the school board meeting last night.

She then was told another person was hired, and she did not have the job. "Now it seems I am not being recommended for the job and my name has been removed (from the hiring list)" Dawson said. "There is something really wrong with this." Superintendent Ron Blankenship said "No one was hired until the Board approved the hiring." Blankenship told Mrs. Dawson she was not the best qualified applicant. She responded by saying "I was on the staff and someone changed their mind." Dawson said she was not clear what to do with her grievance, after last night's meeting.
The board covered a number of other issues at the meeting. Details will follow. |
