Targeted improvement plans approved (8–0) The board voted 8–0 to approve targeted improvement plans for Creedmoor Elementary, Del Valle Elementary and Ojeda Middle School.

Presenters told the board the center has a long local presence and provides clinical services and student learning opportunities. The motion was recorded as carrying with one abstention.
Selection of marketing/branding firm for High School No. 2 (approved, 7–0–2) The board voted to approve a contract with a marketing and branding firm (Donovan Group named in workshop materials) for up to $60,000 over a 12-month period to lead naming, branding and stakeholder engagement work for the district’s second comprehensive high school.

What’s next District staff said they will continue bringing implementation updates and required evidence to the board (for TEA and internal monitoring) and return for contract approvals and budgetary actions when proposals require funding. Several motions were informational or approvals to move forward with staff-led implementation rather than final funding votes.
Ending: Minutes reflect the board approved multiple action items; staff will report back to the board on implementation and follow-up as required.
