At last month’s New Castle County V0-Tech’s Board of Education meeting, Superintendent Vicki Gehrt wanted to get the ball rolling early on her contract renewal. Her contract isn’t up for another six months, but apparently she felt the need to bring it up now. The board wasn’t too keen on that. Details are scarce, but it wound up with the non-elected board going in and out of executive session throughout the night. As Gehrt and friends stayed in one room with Gehrt visibly upset. Scuttlebutt has it that the board is not too enamored with Gehrt, especially after the Amy Joyner-Francis death at Howard High School of Technology as well as other issues.
Ultimately, the board decided to table any talk of Gehrt’s Superintendent renewal until it is actually up for renewal. But they do have a board meeting tomorrow night. Will Vo-Tech Vicki bring it up again? Will there be more drama with unannounced adventures in executive session? And will the board meeting be heard for all to hear? Last month, the board was prepping for the House Bill 61 all school boards must record bill which goes into effect in a couple of months. But no recording was put up on the website. This is definitely a to be continued story…
