Board upholds administration on two staff grievance appeals after closed-session review
Summary
After a closed session, trustees returned to open session and voted to uphold administration decisions, denying two staff grievance appeals: one from Harmony School of Discovery and another from Harmony School of Achievement (Houston). Motions were made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
After recessing to closed session under Texas Government Code sections 551.071, 551.074 and 551.082 to consult with counsel and discuss personnel matters, the Harmony Public Schools board returned to open session and took public action on two staff grievance appeals.
For the first appeal (identified in the transcript as a staff grievance appeal from Harmony School of Discovery / the Discovery campus), a board member moved to uphold the administration’s decision and deny the appeal; another member seconded the motion and the board approved it by voice vote. For the second appeal (a staff grievance appeal from Harmony School of Achievement, Houston), a separate motion to uphold the administration and deny the grievance was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The board stated that no action had been taken while in closed session, and the approvals in open session reflect the board’s formal motions to uphold the administration’s decisions.
