Upset parents of fifth grade students at Avonworth Elementary School told board members at Monday's work session that they did not agree with the timing of the administration's decision to fill an open teaching position in the sixth grade with a current fifth grade teacher.
The sixth grade vacancy was created when the board hired Scott Miller to fill a newly created assistant principal position starting this semester at the elementary school. His vacant teaching position will be filled by David Bartolac, who is a fifth grade teacher at the elementary school.
