I. Property Information – Roger Hill
Chairperson Winchester asked Mr. Hill to discuss information regarding property with the Board. He handed out a map to the
Board showing the 18 acres of property he has talked to the owner about the value. The property may be a good place to
replace Ammon. He wants to know if the Board is interested and if the map with the sewer line is ok. The Board is interested in
pursuing this property.
Mr. Hill also talked about property that they discussed last meeting. He doesn’t feel like the District would be able to pay the
requested price. They talked about having the owner donate a portion. The Board thought they should wait to see what the
price may be.
There was some discussion regarding trees that the District agreed to keep as well as let the owner take the ones they want.
Mr. Hill will talk with the owner about which ones they want to take. There are three rows of trees there.
With regard to the property line concern, they will draw the description up to show the line at the fence. They will get
information from the survey firm that the description is right.
II. Personnel Items Shalene French
Chairperson Winchester asked Dr. French to discuss personnel issues with the Board. She recommended that Teacher E15 be
placed on probation for the rest of the year. The individual has been suspended and an investigation is taking place.
She will meet with Employee F15 who has failed to pass the JPAS for two years in a row. The teacher has scored ineffective
this year and minimally effective last year. There is a plan for supervision and get the individual into some classes. If the
probation doesn’t go well, Dr. French will recommend non-renewal of the contract.
Dr. French gave an update on employee B15. The individual is suspended but has been relocated to work at Bonneville Online
with Mr. Salsbery. There is a long term substitute in the individual’s classroom and the individual is able to access the com puter
to provide lesson plans for the substitute. They are still checking into what do with the dual credit class. The District may need
to be prepared to refund some money to the kids enrolled in that class that don’t feel like they received the instruction the feel
they should have received. The individual will seek counseling as part of the suspension. The individual is very humble and has
apologized for actions that lead up to the suspension. The individual is a good teacher and well liked.
