Liberty County board pauses GSBA search, names Ms. Frazier permanent superintendent through June 2026

The Liberty County School Board voted to pause the GSBA superintendent search and appoint Ms. Frazier as the district's permanent superintendent effective Oct. 1, with the appointment set to run through June 30, 2026. The motion was made by Ms. Guyana and seconded; the board adopted it by voice vote.

The decision came after a motion by Ms. Guyana: "I'll make a motion that we pause GSBA search and that effective October 1, we name miss Frazier as our permanent superintendent to end 06/30/2026," as recorded in the meeting transcript. The motion was seconded and the chair announced, "Ayes have it. Motion carries unanimously." The transcript does not record individual vote tallies or the name of the member who seconded the motion.

Earlier in the meeting the board also approved a personnel recommendation submitted by the superintendent; that motion likewise passed by voice vote. After the appointment, Ms. Frazier addressed the board and community, thanking members and pledging to support the district's mission and vision. She said she was "committed to making certain that we support the mission and vision of Liberty County Schools" and emphasized a focus on student achievement and providing resources so "our scholars can improve overall."

The transcript shows two spellings for the superintendent's name ("Frazier" and "Frasier"). The district recording identifies the person who spoke at the meeting as the superintendent and used the pronunciation represented here as "Ms. Frazier." The motion references a "GSBA search" (the meeting transcript uses the acronym GSBA but does not expand it or identify the organization in the record).

The board set the appointment effective Oct. 1 and the term ending June 30, 2026. The transcript does not specify next steps such as a contract signing date or any personnel transitions associated with the appointment.
