The Brentwood Union Free School District Board of Education on Aug. 21 approved multiple legal and personnel‑related agreements and addressed an ongoing civil action involving current and former employees and board members.

Under agenda item D1G the board approved a settlement agreement and general release concerning an instructional employee and authorized the superintendent and board president to execute the agreement. Under D1H the board approved a last‑chance agreement dated Aug. 21, 2025, between a certain staff member and Local 237, City Employees Union International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and authorized the president to execute that agreement.

During D1I the board resolved to provide legal defense and indemnification, in accordance with Education Law §3811 and Public Officers Law §18 (as read into the record), for listed current and former employees and board members named as defendants in an action titled William King Moss III v. Board of Education of the Brentwood Union Free School District, docket number recorded in the transcript as 24‑CV‑8759. The resolution designates a law firm selected by the district’s designated insurer to represent the district and the named defendants.

Separately, under D1J the board accepted a court order dismissing the claims brought by William King Moss III and accepted the court’s determination that Moss must reimburse defendants for costs and reasonable attorney’s fees based on the court’s finding of frivolous conduct. The board recorded motions and votes for these items during the meeting; motions were made and seconded by sitting board members and the transcript records the vote calls as approving each resolution.

The resolutions referenced state law provisions and the district’s authority to execute agreements; the meeting record does not include the settlement’s monetary terms, the identity of the law firm selected by the insurer, or additional details about the dismissed claims beyond the court’s finding and fee award.
