Some familiar names and longtime Crookston Public Schools staff members and athletic coaches are on the Monday, May 24 Crookston School Board agenda, in the form of resolutions approving their retirements or resignations.
There’s also a significant hire on the agenda, in the form of a resolution to hire Tara Klein as a counselor at CHS to succeed Leah Zimmerman, who resigned earlier this school year. The school district had struggled to find a successor this spring, but in Klein, the district is getting a counselor with nine years of experience and a masters of arts degree. Her higher education past includes the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, University of Phoenix, St. Cloud State University and Minnesota State University. Klein will be paid approximately $68,500 in the 2021-22 school year.
