Board Member Pat Bradford said that she intends, "to make a motion at our next meeting to rescind the motion to approve the three-year extension of employment contract for Superintendent Charles Foust,” she said.
Board Member Stephanie Kraybill was visibly upset, and criticized the proposal, while other members called her out of order.
“We can't keep bringing this crap up, at pulling it out of our tail end. This is ridiculous,” Kraybill said.
The board can unilaterally terminate Foust’s contract without cause — but they will be required to pay him one year’s salary, over $253,000.
Bradford’s motion came up during a discussion about what’s next for the Career Readiness Academy High School program at Mosley. Next Tuesday, the board has slated 20 minutes to talk about the future of the school.
During that conversation about Mosley’s staffing costs, both Foust and board attorney Jonathan Vogel said they didn’t know if they could release the names of faculty and their salaries. Public records law clearly states that this information is not protected and is open to inspection.
