Excuse Me While I Kiss This Guy

Who hasn't heard (or believed similarly) that the lyrics of the classic Jimi Hendrix scorcher, Purple Haze" actually were those words instead of "the sky"?  After all, it was the the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, a prelude to the Summer of Love.   You know...Woodstock?  Make love not war?

You're probably wondering where we are going with this.  It just somehow seemed at least a halfway decent segue into an agenda item we noticed on the school board meeting for Monday January 23, 2012.

Did We Misunderstand this?  Or are some Administrators Missing?
Administrator Contract Renewals and Extensions

Each January, the school district issues, for board approval, a list of administrators whose contracts Tim Culver is proposing to either renew (for those on initial 2-year contracts) or extend for an additional year.
Maybe we missed something here, but there seem to be some names missing.

Last year's list included the following:

1. Authorize the Human Resources Department to send Notice of Contract Extension of one year to:
James Ackley, Tom Brooks, Craig Coulthart, Lisa Dawes, Phil Frei, Nancy Hery.
Michelle Kelly, Kathi Klaas, Clark Luessman, Mike Mades, James McClowry,
Elizabeth Merrick, Annette Mikula, Rick Mueller, Alice Murphy, Ryan Ruggles, Lori
Schultz. Renee Slotten-Beauchamp, Jason Widiker

2. Authorize the Human Resources Department to send Notice of Contract Renewal to.
Lisa Bollinger, Rainey Briggs. Tony Dugas. Lisa Heipp, Wendi Tavs (225 days),
Chad Wiedmeyer, Karen Ward (one year)

We also had the following new contracts issued this year:  Jennifer Apodaca (replacing Lisa Dawes), Reginald McGee (replacing Rainey Briggs), and Jeremiah Holliday (replacing Lori Schultz)

What exactly does it mean if an administrator's contract is not being extended?  Or did we hear this wrong?
Hmmmm
