Summary
After the public meeting the board announced it would adjourn into closed executive session to discuss personnel matters including superintendent and deputy superintendent status, employees on administrative leave, and grievances under the Open Meetings Act citation provided.
At the conclusion of the open session on Sept. 25, the Deming Public Schools Board announced it would adjourn into a closed executive session under the New Mexico Open Meetings Act to discuss personnel matters. The chair read the executive session notice: the board will discuss superintendent and deputy superintendent matters, reports on employees on administrative leave with pay, employee grievances, and other employee issues pursuant to NMSA 10‑15‑1(H)(2) (Open Meetings Act). The board then took a motion to go into a closed session; a roll call vote was recorded and the meeting moved into executive session. The board stated that no action would occur in closed executive session and did not announce any actions taken from the closed session in the public record at this meeting. Why it matters: Personnel matters are confidential under state law; the board signaled it will handle these issues in executive session as permitted by statute.
