    1916 Your Hometown Newspaper 2013 Ajo, Pima County, Arizona Wednesday, July 17, 2013 Volume 89, Number 45, ©2013 Ajo’s Desert Sharks went for the gold Personnel, policy on AUSD agenda Meeting in regularly scheduled sessions, the Ajo Unified School District board last week dealt with a variety of board policy, personnel, and business issues. Superintendent Robert Dooley, in a prelude to discussion on person- nel items, noted in his board report that staffing presents a perennial problem this time of year. He said he may ask for a special board meet- ing on hiring. Dooley singled out staff members Patti Spencer, Claudian Carpenter, and Angelina Valenzuela with praise for additional work they have put into the business office this summer. The School Improvement Grant (SIG) staff will return from summer break on July 29, he said, and teachers will be coming back to campus August 5 and 6. Dooley also noted that Jumpstart and STEM classes had started the week before, with 40 students in the former, and 12 in STEM. In personnel actions, the board voted to accept one certified and three classified resignations. Velma Taboada, hired at last month’s board meeting, decided to withdraw from employment with the district, cit- ing family reasons. The three classified resignations accepted were Joni Jaramillo, in payroll and accounts payable; Shawna Rupple, school sec- retary; and Dahlia Perez, custodian. The board okayed Charmaine Beharie for an extra-pay position as coordinator of the gifted program, and approved the hiring of Venus Celaya in accounting and accounts payable, and Nathan Garcia as a Jacob Lewis pushed off at the start of the boys’ 13-14 50-yard backstroke.
