Morgan County Schools approves staffing changes affecting Eva School for 2026-27

The Morgan County Board of Education approved two staffing changes that will affect Eva-area students during the 2026-27 school year: a Brewer High School counselor will move into a full-time K-6 teaching position at Eva School, and a computer technician/trainer position will become a full-time grades 6-8 agriscience teaching assignment serving Eva and Cotaco.

The actions were included in the board’s May 26, 2026, business minutes. The record identifies the changes as part of staffing restructuring, not as layoffs or a funding cut.

Eva School transfer takes effect May 21

The board approved Jennifer Cobbs’ transfer from a 12-month counselor position at Brewer High School to a full-time K-6 teacher position at Eva School. The minutes list the effective date as May 21, 2026, several days before the board’s business meeting.

That assignment gives Eva School a named new K-6 teaching placement for the coming school year. The available board record does not provide class-size, enrollment or schedule information, so it does not establish whether the change will add a class or alter the school’s total staffing headcount.

Agriscience assignment will serve Eva and Cotaco

The board also approved moving a computer technician/trainer into a full-time grades 6-8 agriscience teaching position serving Eva/Cotaco. That assignment is effective Aug. 1, 2026, ahead of the 2026-27 school year.

The minutes do not identify the technician/trainer by name. They also do not say that the agriscience position is physically located at Eva School; the documented service area is Eva/Cotaco.

For students and families, the approved changes mean a new K-6 teaching assignment at Eva and a designated grades 6-8 agriscience role serving the two communities. The actions may shape staffing and course offerings as the school year begins, but the board record does not include final class assignments, enrollment figures or a schedule.

What families should watch for

Morgan County Schools will need to provide any final class assignments and additional schedule details. The board minutes establish the personnel actions and their effective dates, but they do not specify how students will be assigned or whether other staffing changes will follow.

Eva is a municipality in Morgan County, Alabama, and the school action is tied directly to the district serving the community. The next known dates in the record are May 21, when Cobbs’ transfer became effective, and Aug. 1, when the Eva/Cotaco agriscience assignment takes effect.
