Summary

Trustees approved routine orders, ASBA advisory policy changes, an MOU, two teacher contract releases (one without fee, one with fee reported to board), and a donations list; the board entered executive session under a cited Arizona statute to discuss personnel requests.

The Kingman Unified School District board took several routine actions and personnel votes at its Nov. 13 meeting.

Routine business and policy: The board approved the routine orders of business and accepted ASBA-recommended advisory policy changes (advisory numbers listed in the agenda) after staff said the revisions were clerical and did not change core protections for transportation, food services, safety or security.

MOU and donations: The board approved a memorandum of understanding with M STEP (Winstep) to continue one-on-one student support (see separate article) and approved a list of donor contributions presented by staff.

Personnel and executive session: The board moved into executive session under 'Arizona revised statute 48 dash 4 31.03 a 1' to discuss requests to be released from employment contracts. After reopening public session, trustees approved a request from April Moulton to be released from her 2025–26 contract effective Oct. 23, 2025, without imposition of a fee and without reporting to the state. They also approved Samantha Nguyen’s request for release effective Nov. 3, 2025, with imposition of a fee and with reporting to the board that reached a contract (transcript phrasing). The transcript records voice votes ('Aye') and chair announcements of 'motion carries' but does not show a detailed roll-call tally.

Other: The board approved the adoption of two books for middle- and junior-high instruction (covered separately) and heard community and board announcements, including a Lee Williams High School soccer event on Nov. 20.
