Summary

The Accomack County School Board convened a closed meeting to discuss personnel and student matters under the Code of Virginia and later voted to approve a personnel list and to table a readmission case to the next meeting.

The Accomack County School Board moved into closed session early in the meeting to discuss personnel and student matters permitted by the Code of Virginia. The motion cited "personnel matters" under Subdivision 8.1 and student matters and religious-exemption appeals under Subdivision 8.2 of §2.2-3711 of the Code of Virginia.

After returning to open session, the board approved the personnel list as presented. The transcript records a roll call vote in which one member voted "nay" and the motion otherwise carried; the meeting audio did not attach names to each recorded yes vote. The board also voted to table readmission case number 819251 to the next board meeting in September at the request of the parties.

During the closed-session motion the board enumerated the matters to be discussed: seven professional appointments, four long-term substitute contracts, three classified appointments, three part-time appointments, one professional resignation, four classified resignations, one part-time resignation, one long-term substitute resignation, 18 status changes, 14 substitute appointments, and one coach. The board also cited two student matters and a list of religious-exemption petitions.

The board approved allowing Miss Bowman to participate remotely for the meeting, after she offered a reason of a personal matter related to inclement weather and poor road conditions.

The board identified the closed-session legal authority on the record as required by state law and later acted on personnel approvals in open session.
