The Cobb County School District board on June 12 approved a human-resources personnel report including the appointment of Amy Shannon as principal of Leclerc Middle School and affirmed in part a student-discipline appeal; the personnel report passed 7–0 and the appeal decision passed 6–1.
Keeley Bowen, the district’s chief human resources officer, presented the human-resources personnel report at the Cobb County School District board meeting on June 12 and asked the board to approve employment actions discussed in executive session. "It is my pleasure to bring to you the human resources personnel report for today, 06/12/2025," Bowen said.
The administration recommended approving a single principal-level appointment: Amy Shannon, assigned as principal of Leclerc Middle School effective July 1, 2025. Mr. Wheeler moved to accept the personnel report; the motion carried by voice/hand count, 7–0.
On a separate motion, Miss Sailor moved to "affirm in part and reissue in part" the hearing decision in student-discipline appeal 19, citing executive-session discussion. Mr. Wheeler seconded the motion. The board approved that motion 6–1; the transcript records the tally but does not list individual recorded votes in the public roll call.
The actions taken were procedural votes that implemented personnel changes discussed in executive session and a formal board determination on a single student-discipline appeal. The board did not discuss disciplinary details in open session; the transcript indicates the appeal outcome was handled consistent with prior executive-session deliberations.
