Bowling Green school board OKs multiple contracts for student services
Summary
The Bowling Green Independent School District board unanimously approved contracts for legal services, hearing-impaired services, behavioral and therapy providers, and student counseling at its July 21 meeting.
At its July 21 meeting in Bowling Green, the Bowling Green Independent School District Board of Education approved a slate of vendor contracts for the 2025–26 year, including legal services, hearing-impaired services, behavioral-analytic services, occupational therapy and student counseling.
The measures matter because they secure outside providers the district said it will use to support students with special needs and district operations for the coming school year.
The board approved a contract with English, Lucas, Priest & Owsley LLP for legal services (Order No. 21621). It also approved a Contractor Agreement for Hearing Impaired Services (Order No. 21622) and a contract with Bailey Payne, MS, BCBA, LBA, to provide behavior analytic services (Order No. 21623). The board approved a contract with Sarah Moody for occupational therapy for the 2025–26 school year (Order No. 21624) and a contract with Lifeskills, Inc. to provide student counseling services (Order No. 21626). Each motion was moved, seconded and adopted by a unanimous hand vote of board members present.
The items were presented to the board “as presented”; the meeting record does not include extended discussion or details on contract durations beyond the occupational therapy note specifying the 2025–26 school year. Regina Jackson of English, Lucas, Priest & Owsley is listed among attendees. The transcript does not quote district staff or the superintendent on scope, per-student costs, or contract lengths.
Formal action: each contract motion was approved by a show of hands with Ms. Lisa Allen and Mr. Frank H. “Hamp” Moore Jr. regularly making or seconding motions and with Mr. Michael Bishop joining. Ms. Deborah Williams, board chair, was present; Ms. Cierra Waller was absent.
Copies of contracts and related documents are on file with the district; the board packet and the signed contracts will be the authoritative source for details such as effective dates, rates and deliverables.
