Summary

Following a closed session, the Harlandale Independent School District board approved the superintendent’s recommendation to appoint Jacob Salinas as director of transportation and logistics; the motion carried with no roll-call tally recorded in the public record.

The Harlandale Independent School District board of trustees voted May 14 to approve Superintendent Miguel Sotto’s recommendation of Jacob Salinas as the district’s director of transportation and logistics.

Trustee Reese moved to approve the superintendent’s recommendation; Trustee Ortiz seconded. The vote was taken after the board returned from a closed session authorized under Texas Government Code chapter 551, sections 551.071–551.084. The board chair announced the motion carried but did not read a roll-call tally in open session.

After the vote, Salinas, present in the meeting, thanked trustees. Superintendent Sotto said the board and administration aim to place “instructional leaders in a position to succeed,” and no further action was taken on related personnel items at that time.

The board had convened in closed session earlier to discuss multiple personnel matters, including the superintendent’s recommendations for administrative assignments and possible litigation matters; only the action to appoint Salinas was announced after the closed session.

The board did not provide a public roll-call vote count for the appointment in the work session minutes, and trustees did not expand on the record following the vote.
