Madison County Schools board approves routine agenda, contracts and personnel items; moves to executive session

The Madison County Schools board approved a series of routine agenda and personnel items and then moved into executive session at its Aug. 21, 2025 meeting.

The board voted to approve the meeting agenda and to approve minutes from the district’s prior meetings (minutes listed as 07/17/1929 in the transcript were corrected to 07/17/2025 in board materials). The board then approved contracts and services as submitted and a personnel slate including a new principal appointment.

The board unanimously approved the updated sewer service agreement for Hazel Green Schools, as presented by staff.

The personnel approvals included the formal congratulations to Mr. Holman, identified on the record as the new principal at Madison County Virtual School. The board approved a principal probationary contract and supplemental contracts “as submitted.”

Before adjourning to executive session, the chair announced that when the board returned it would vote only on a single personnel transfer. A motion and second were made and the board entered executive session for the stated purpose; the transcript ends with the board in executive session.
