Six teachers and the assistant athletic director at Warsaw Community High School and three elementary school counselors won't have their contracts renewed for the 2003-04 school year, the Warsaw School Board decided Monday. By unanimously approving a move from block scheduling to a five-period trimester system at WCHS, the administration could cut several teachers from the high school without compromising classes. All teachers cut were either considered non-permanent, in the first two years of their contracts, or semi-permanent, within the third through fifth years of their contracts.(In years six and beyond, according to superintendent Dr.David McGuire, teachers are considered permanent, or tenured.) Teachers who won't be returning are: Rachel Higgins, family and consumer science; Susan Mishler, physical education and assistant athletic director; Kelly Morrow, art; Lois Padilla, math; Troy Rudd, Spanish; and Dayna Yoder, middle school math.
