Board says it approved amendments to superintendent’s contract in closed session; HR to finalize language
Summary
The Eau Claire Area School Board announced it approved several amendments to the superintendent’s contract during a closed session and directed district HR to incorporate those changes into next year’s contract; the board cited statute 19.851(c) for the closed‑session adjournment.
The Eau Claire Area School Board said it approved several amendments to the superintendent’s contract during a closed session and directed staff to draft those changes into next year’s agreement.
The board went into closed session under state statute 19.851(c) on a motion by Doctor Farrar, seconded by Doctor Beka; the motion to adjourn to closed session was recorded and the board reconvened at approximately 7 p.m. After returning to open session, the chair stated: “The board approved several amendments to the superintendent’s contract for the upcoming year. I will work with our HR director to indicate those and, get them into next year's contract.” The chair’s statement was the only description of the action in open session; no further details about the amendments were provided on the public record.
Because the board discussed and acted in closed session under the cited statute, the transcript and public statements do not list the specific amendment terms. The chair said the HR director will prepare contract language reflecting the board’s direction so the changes can be incorporated for the coming contract year.
The board also completed related procedural business during the meeting, including adoption of consent agendas and other personnel items (some items were approved with the exception of a single handbook section held for later clarification).
