Board hires substitutes, mulls candidates for assistant principal DALLAS TWP. — After more than 200 minutes behind closed doors, Dallas - School Board members spent barely two min- utes to hire two long-term sub- stitute teachers. And they still need an assis- tant high school principal. The board met at 5:30 Monday afternoon in executive session to interview four finalists for long- term substitutes and two candi- dates for the assistant principal slot, Superintendent Gilbert Griffiths said. They emerged from the session Be. at about 8:54, and quickly and unanimously hired Linda Mazu- la at the Middle School and Tra- cy Morgan at Dallas Elementary, both for one semester at a pro- rated salary equivalent to $29,172 annually. Board Mem- ber Deborah Morgantini was ab- sent. Mazula and Morgan have been substitute teaching in the dis- trict for some time and were picked for the long-term assign- ments in part because of that experience, Griffiths said. They will replace two teachers out on 204 Wyoming Ave Wyoming 570-693-4299 800-693-1416 550 Memorial Hwy Dallas Corners Dallas 570-675-7777 Fumanti Wireless =— ughter Wireless Companies to choose {fol11 maternity leave for one semes- ter. The district will be losing two more teachers for the same rea- son later in the year, and those positions will also have to be filled with long-term substitutes, Griffiths said. Two candidates from out of the district are vying for the as- sistant principal slot, Griffiths said, and the board couldn't de- cide between them. “We have two excellent choic- es,” Griffith said.

When asked what is the most positive quality of Jackson Township, residents replied the rural atmosphere, with 82 per- cent saying that the preserva- tion of open space and agricul- ture should be of the greatest importance to the township. “The new comprehensive plan will change the way the town- ship will look in 25 to 50 years,” said Niezgoda. “People are start- ing to look at development dif- ferently.
