After an extremely long and eventful day at the School District, Board Chair Matt Susin made a motion to place Dr. Schiller, the recently hired interim superintendent on an indefinite administrative leave.
The discussion item originated with documents that Susin placed on the agenda yesterday related to negotiations that he and Dr. Schiller were having about amending and clarifying his current contract. The conversation quickly turned to addressing issues that School Board Member Jennifer Jenkins brought up during an off-site meeting on January 9th, 2023 about concerns she expressed at the time relating to executed contracts and workplace issues communicated to her from other senior staff.
Once hired, Jenkins had concerns about Schiller unilaterally executing “consulting” contracts with individuals he may have had a professional relationship with for services that fell under his job description. When she requested to see the contract, the consultant suddenly became ill and cancelled the agreement.
