The Kenston Local School Board met in a special session on Nov. 24, 2025, to address personnel items and to vote to enter an executive session to discuss personnel matters under Ohio law.

Board members introduced two classified personnel items listed as agenda items 5.1 and 5.2 and a supplemental contract listed as agenda item 6.1. An unidentified board member moved to approve the classified personnel items; the board conducted a roll call during which several members, including Mister Henry, Doctor Krauss (also transcribed as Kravis/Krauss), and Mister Meade, were recorded responding "Yes." The meeting record shows the board proceeded with the supplemental contract item after the personnel items.

The board also recorded a notice of intent regarding the non‑teaching retire/rehire of Linda Murphy. The notice was announced as agenda item 5.4; no additional detail about the terms of the retire/rehire (length, compensation, or effective date) was provided in the meeting record and is not specified.

Near the end of the session, the board moved to enter an executive session under the Ohio Revised Code to discuss "the employment, dismissal, discipline, promotion or compensation of a public employee," among other authorized topics. The motion to enter executive session was made by a board member identified in the record as Jim and was seconded. The board took roll call and announced it would enter executive session at 04:22. The presiding speaker stated for the record that no further business would be conducted after the executive session and that the board would adjourn following the closed session.

The meeting packet and agenda items were said to have been provided to board members in advance through the district's electronic agenda system; the presiding speaker noted that prior review of materials can make in‑meeting discussion brief. The meeting cited compliance with Ohio Revised Code section 3313.15 and Ohio Revised Code 121.22 (sunshine law and executive session authority).

No members of the public were present to offer comment on agenda items during the public‑comment period; the board referenced board policy 0169.1 for the rules governing public comment.
