staff report
CANFIELD — The board of education handled some routine back-to-school agenda items.
Wednesday night’s meeting focused mainly on the hiring of several new tutors and a teacher for the school district.
The board hired Jeanne Bloomster as a tutor at Hilltop Elementary at $18.89 per hour. Dana Lariccia was hired as a Canfield Village Middle School tutor at $16.04 per hour.
Julie Webb was transferred from a tutoring position at the middle school to a seventh-grade teacher job. Superintendent Dante Zambrini said because Webb has been with the district for four years, her salary, at $38,557, will be higher than the normal entry-level rate of $32,000 per year.
Several music paraprofessionals also were hired for the band and choir.
The 2008-09 school year begins Sept. 4.
