School board selects new
food services director
Kelly is a Coast Guard veteran
Ocean Beach School Dis-
trict in Pacific County,
Washington, but said he
wants to get back into the
classroom.
• Ryan Hahn, the dis-
trict’s
transportation
director, will leave this
summer for the same posi-
tion in the North Clack-
amas School District.
Hahn said the move will
help him be closer to
George Fox University in
Newberg, where he com-
mutes in pursuit of his
master’s degree, and to
his mother Marcia Hahn,
who starts next year as
transportation
director
for the Estacada School
District.
• Clint Hill, an English
teacher and faculty adviser
for the Astor Post, is leav-
ing this summer for a posi-
tion at Patrick Henry High
School in Roanoke, Vir-
ginia. Hill taught for 14
years at Astoria High
School, including 13 dif-
ferent courses, according
to the Astor Post.
Kelly’s
experience
with food service comes
from 27 years in the U.S.
Coast Guard, from which
he earned vocational cer-
tificates in culinary arts,
cooking and food service
management.
Kelly will receive a
two-year contract with
a $55,000 annual sal-
ary . He will oversee four
cafeterias.
Kelly retires from the
Coast Guard in June and
starts with the district in
July.
Hoppes said Kelly will
then start creating menus
that meet state nutritional
standards.

former vice principal of
Astoria High School, will

The Astoria School Board
approved a new contract
Wednesday with Michael
Kelly to be the dis-
trict’s new food services
director.
Kelly, from Hammond,
will oversee the district’s
first autonomous food ser-
vice program in 20 years.
The school board voted
at its last meeting to not
renew a contract with
Chartwells, a Vancouver,
Washington-based
food
service provider.
Board members and
Superintendent Craig Hop-
pes shared their concerns
over a lack of communi-
cation and inconsistencies
with food being served.
Chartwells still has con-
tracts with the Warren-
ton-Hammond and Seaside
school districts.
