Board approves amended contract for Superintendent Mike Miles and elects vice president, secretary

Following a closed-session discussion on June 12, the Houston Independent School District board voted to approve the terms of an amended and restated employment contract for Superintendent Mike Miles and later elected Angela Lamont Flowers as board vice president and Paula Mendoza as board secretary.

The board briefly recessed into closed session under the Texas Open Meetings Act and reconvened at 10:12 p.m.; the public transcript records a motion to approve the amended and restated employment contract and a subsequent vote to elect officers. After the votes, board leadership changes were announced on the record.

Board minutes show the motions were made and carried; the transcript records the motion to approve the contract terms in open session immediately after reconvening. The transcript does not publish the final contract text or the vote tallies in the public record excerpt. Trustees then moved to elect officers: a motion to name Angela Lamont Flowers vice president and Paula Mendoza board secretary passed.

These formal actions complete the board's personnel decisions following the meeting and set leadership roles for the coming months. The administration indicated the closed-session items involved personnel and contract terms and that any final actions taken would be reflected in the open meeting upon reconvening, which the board did. The board announced the two officer elections on the record and adjourned.
