Atown schools look for new athletic director

AUSTINTOWN — Austintown schools is looking for a new athletic director as Joe Nohra moves on to become an assistant principal at Fitch High School.

The school board voted at its meeting tonight to approve a two-year contract for Nohra at a salary of $68,457.

The board is continuing its search to fill his old position after a candidate for it decided he didn’t want it after all, said Superintendent Doug Heuer.

Depending on a candidate’s years of administrative experience, the position will pay $62,380 to $68,450, Heuer said.

Also at its meeting, the board voted to hire Vincent Colaluca, director of curriculum and instruction, as a regular employee of the district. The district had used Colaluca’s services beginning last year through the Mahoning County Educational Services Center.

Colaluca’s two-year contract pays a salary of $82,400 a year.
