A Northern Lehigh Middle School student has been expelled for the first semester of this school term.

The school board unanimously agreed on Monday to expel the student, a male, following the Findings of Fact and Conclusion of Law and recommendation of the Hearing Committee earlier in the day.The recommendation is to expel student #1490011, for whom the hearing was conducted, from school attendance for the first semester of the 2010-11 school year, as per the adopted school calendar.However, board President Edward Hartman said the student could have the expulsion cut in half and be permitted to attend school at some point."If the young man does an exceptional job, he could have it reduced," Hartman said. "It will be reviewed by administration."The student may be permitted to attend school, provided that in the judgment of the middle school principal - after consultation with teachers and school counselors - the student has participated, made satisfactory effort, and attained satisfactory progress in the educational program provided during the period of expulsion from school attendance.The expulsion is a result of violation of school board policy 218.2 - Terroristic Threats/Acts.Also on Monday, the board approved the following instructional substitute teachers at the 2010-11 substitute teacher rates as approved on the Supplementary Personnel Salary Schedule:Ralph Andrews, Elementary; Amanda Bankos, English; Thomas Battista, Health and Physical Education; Laura Bensinger, Elementary; Kathryn Bonilla, Music and Reading Specialist; Janet Brostedt, Elementary; Jaren Case, Elementary; Lisa Cox, English and Special Education; Michelle Custer, Elementary; Andrew Drake, Social Studies; Amberly Drey, Elementary; Kenneth Eck, Jr., Earth and Space Science; Ashley Eckhart, Elementary; Meredith Foster, Elementary; Mary Frank, Art K-12; Amanda Frey, Elementary; Cynthia Fritzinger, Elementary; Amberly Gable, English; Peggy Gallagher, Elementary; Ricky Guth, all subjects; Jeff Jacobucci, all subjects; Dawn Kemery, Elementary; Andrew Kern, all subjects; Katherine Kern, Elementary; Lori King, Elementary; Amber Kistler, Elementary; Kristy Kratzer, Elementary and Special Education; Donna Lobach-Berger, Elementary; Melissa Ludwig, Elementary; Deborah Magnotta, Elementary and Reading Specialist; Ryan Mayberry, Elementary; Ashley Nagy, Art K-12; Joseph Nester, Special Education and Social Studies; Samantha Reichard, Elementary and Special Education; Stephen Reimert, Social Studies; Linda Sarver, Art; Casey Slade, Elementary; Michael Sosik, Elementary; Virginia Stevenson, Music; Anthony Tulio, Elementary; Nina Weiss, Elementary; Jane Wessner, Elementary; Joshua Wuchter, Elementary.The board also approved the following noninstructional substitute teachers at the 2010-11 substitute teacher rates as approved on the Supplementary Personnel Salary Schedule:Peggy Balliet; Nicole Breneman; Claire Danko; Jonell Dye; Nicole Evans; Catherine Faenza; Corrine Hoffman; Judy Hoffman; Heather Hughes; Lisa Lamon; Dawn Martinez; Ryan Mayberry; Maurren McCullion; Shelly Pender; Christine Sigley; Catherine Smith; Carol Snyder; Kathleen Troxell; Barbara Wilcrout; Tina Williams; and Kathy Yelinek.
