Owasso board extends superintendent's contract through June 2028 after executive session
Summary
After an executive session to review the superintendent’s annual evaluation and contract, the board voted to extend Superintendent Margaret Coats’ contract by one year, moving the end date to June 30, 2028.
The Owasso Public Schools Board of Education voted after an executive session to extend Superintendent Margaret Coats’ contract by one year, from July 1, 2027, to June 30, 2028.
The board convened an executive session authorized under Oklahoma law to discuss the superintendent’s annual evaluation and contract review; the meeting minutes record that the executive session was held under Oklahoma Statute Title 25, Section 307(B)(1). After returning to open session, a motion to extend the superintendent's contract carried by roll call with affirmative votes recorded.
Coats thanked the board after the vote and said the evaluation had been thorough. "I appreciate the board's support...I love Owasso, and I'm grateful to have one more year," she said.
Why it matters: extending the superintendent’s contract finalizes leadership continuity for another year and follows an evaluation process handled in executive session as allowed by state statute.
