Board of Trustees Denies Level 3 Grievances for Steven M and Bianca B

The Del Valle Independent School District (ISD) held a special board meeting on August 14, 2025, beginning at 6:15 PM. The meeting commenced with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a confirmation that a quorum was present and that the meeting notice complied with the Texas Open Meetings Act.

The board moved directly into closed session to discuss several items, including consultations with legal counsel and personnel matters. Specifically, the board addressed a Level 3 grievance from an individual named Bianca B. and later considered a Level 3 grievance from Stephen M. It was noted that one grievance was not addressed due to the absence of the concerned party.

After concluding the closed session at 7:55 PM, the board reconvened in open session at 8:01 PM to take action on the discussed grievances. The first action involved the grievance of Stephen M., where a motion to deny the grievance was made and seconded. The motion passed with a unanimous "aye" vote, resulting in the denial of the grievance.

The board then considered the grievance of Bianca B. A motion was made to take no action, citing the board's lack of authority to grant the grievance. This motion was also seconded and passed with an affirmative vote.

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, which was unanimously approved. Overall, the meeting focused on addressing specific grievances, with the board taking decisive actions on both matters discussed.
