EXETER — In a short virtual meeting of the Wyoming Area School Board only a brief mention was made in regards to future schooling, with no specific proposals.

Superintendent Janet Serino addressed the matter during her report. “Decisions are being made in regards to future schooling. Please watch the Wyoming Area website for updates.”

The district had initially planned in July to open in a hybrid mode with some students attending classes in school while others attended online, but later switched to start the school year with remote-only learning. The Superintendent’s report also noted “new computers are also being installed for teachers to lessen connectivity issues with virtual learning.”

In the voting session, the board:

• Rescinded the appointment of Cheryl Banull as school psychologist and appointed Katelyn Moore to the position.

• Rescinded the appointment of David Bond as guidance counselor and appointed Keven Whitman in the position at a salary of $49,332.

• Accepted the resignation of special education teacher Rebecca Jones and appointed Rachel Hain to the post, at a salary of $58,332.

• Appointed Marla Moses as long-term substitute for English teacher Cindy Lynch at $43,477, and Cameron King as long-term substitute for music teacher Joyce Becker at $38,733.
