KEY ACTION The Green Local Schools Board of Education hired a treasurer, Erin VanMeter, and also approved Geoffrey Zimmerly as the new Green Middle School/ Smithville High School sixth-12th grade assistant principal.
KEY DISCUSSION The assistant middle school/high school assistant principal position, in which Zimmerly will assist Jenniver Shutt, middle school principal and athletic director, and high school Principal Andy Bratcher, was made possible by a previous administrative switch - Amanda Framstad becoming part-time curriculum director and Lindsey Welch also becoming part-time. Welch had served as director of curriculum and special education and will now take on the sole role of special education.

Monday meeting
KEY DISCUSSION In January the board will evaluate the status of the athletic fund and other student activity funds to see how they are faring as a result of working around the COVID-19 virus.
Treasurer Barbara Markland said she has noticed other districts have found it necessary to supplement the athletic fund because of lower admission rates and ticket sales, in addition to canceled games, but similar operating expenses.
Revenue expectations are different for fall, winter and spring sports, Superintendent Dean Frank said, telling the board he and Markland would document projected figures for athletic and other funds, “see how much they re down,” and make a report to the board next month.
