During consideration of the consent agenda, a board participant disclosed that a long-term substitute contract listed in the consent packet was for Janelle Curry and said, "Janelle Curry is the daughter of Superintendent Mary," and that the hiring followed the district's standard interview and hiring procedures.

The disclosure came before the board voted to approve the consent items. Following the explanation of the hiring process and confirmation that an interview team and applicants were involved, the board moved and approved the consent agenda by voice vote; the transcript records the approval but not a roll-call tally.

No board member asked for the item to be removed from the consent agenda for separate consideration during this meeting. The board did not record additional conditions or recusal statements on the record in the transcript.
