Votes at a glance: Key Judson ISD board actions, May 1, 2025
The Judson Independent School District Board of Trustees recorded several formal votes during its meeting. Below are the key actions, outcomes, and immediate next steps as presented or voted on by the board.

Math instructional materials adoption (Item 5C) — APPROVED, 5–2
The board approved the district adoption of Bluebonnet Learning mathematics materials for implementation in the 2025–26 school year. Staff said adoption makes the district eligible for additional Instructional Materials Allotment (IMA) funding; administration will begin ordering materials and schedule phased professional development. (Motion passed 5–2.)

Instructional Materials Allotment certification (Item 5F) — APPROVED, 5–2
The associated IMA certification for 2025–26, which records district choices and enables state IMA distributions, passed on a 5–2 vote.

Expenditures ≥ $50,000 (consent): APPROVED, 7–0 (with one item pulled)
The board approved the recommended high-value contracts and purchases listed in the consent agenda, excluding one pulled item (a furniture/other request the superintendent asked to remove). Motion passed unanimously on the remaining items.

Instructional Materials & textbook ordering funds: staff reported projected IMA revenue and rollover funds; district finance staff said projected IMA funds and carryover make the proposed purchase plan feasible for this fiscal year.

Internal audit risk assessment (agenda item 6A) — APPROVED, 6–1
The board voted to initiate an internal audit risk assessment and authorized staff to solicit and interview auditing firms over the summer; the goal is to identify operational and financial risks and potential efficiencies. (Motion passed 6–1.)

Personnel and contract actions (closed-session outcomes) — APPROVED, various votes
The board approved the personnel report and new hires/resignations as presented (7–0). Contract renewals for certified teachers, nurses, librarians and counselors for 2025–26 were approved (7–0). Contract renewals for campus and district certified administrators for 2025–26 were approved (7–0). The board also directed staff to give required written notice to two employees whose term contracts the superintendent recommended not be renewed; trustees approved the recommendation (7–0). The board authorized procedures and counsel for any potential nonrenewal hearings.

Other proclamations and consent items — APPROVED
The board approved proclamations declaring May 1, 2025, School Lunch Hero Day and May 7, 2025, School Nurse Day, and passed other consent agenda items noted in the published packet.

Next steps: administration will publish follow-up materials (curriculum rollout schedule, IMA spending plan, staffing/funding reports requested by trustees, and audit solicitation documents) and will return to the board for implementation updates.
