School Board Meeting 4 15 26

This was a school board meeting for the Oyster River School District held on April 15, 2026. The meeting featured extensive public commentary focused on concerns about district leadership, particularly calls for the immediate termination of the superintendent due to staff dissatisfaction and a negative climate survey. The board discussed staffing and budget issues related to interventionist and specialist positions, including proposals to replace some interventionist roles with specialist teacher leadership positions in math and English language arts. These changes were presented as budget-neutral or cost-effective reallocations aimed at improving instructional support and student outcomes. The board also approved a $21,360 contract with One Source Security for exterior surveillance cameras funded by a state education safety grant. Additionally, the board approved committee assignments and discussed policy updates, including staff dress code revisions. The meeting concluded with motions related to future meeting dates and a non-public session vote concerning personnel matters.
