The Southbridge School Committee held its reorganizational meeting tonight following the June 26th town elections.Committee member Scott Lazo was excused from the meeting.
Patricia Woodruff was elected as committee chairman and Mary Ellen Prencipe was elected as vice chairman.
The committee also eliminated the collective bargaining subcommittee. Preference regarding the latter seemed to lean toward a negotiating panel consisting of a member of the school committee, the school superintendent, the school business manager and, when appropriate, a legal advisor. It established a new subcommittee on Communication and Family Engagement to facilitate community wide communication and enhance citizen participation in school affairs.
Following the end of the reorganization meeting the committee entered its regular meeting after a ten minute recess.
In the most significant move of the evening the committee entered executive session to negotiate a contract extension with school superintendent Eric Ely. Following the executive session the committee voted to accept a two year extension to Mr. Ely’s current contract with provisions for salary and benefit escalators.
