BOTKINS — Botkins Board of Education met on Dec. 13 for its regular monthly meeting, during which six positions were approved to be filled.

Susan Covelli, Brenda Tennant, Andrew Davis and Renee Wildermuth were hired as basketball gate workers at the minimum wage rate for the 2017-2018 school year; Jodie Blindauer was hired as a substitute teacher at a rate of $90 per day for the 2017-18 school year; and Xavier Pax was hired as seasonal winter break help.

The board also approved a $40,000 transfer from the general fund to the textbook set-aside fund.

The board entered into executive session prior to adjournment of the meeting.
