The Tomball ISD Board of Trustees voted at its Dec. 9 meeting to render a finding that 'good cause did not exist' for educator Kaylee Brown, citing Texas Administrative Code section 249.14(g) and Texas Education Code sections 21.104(c), 21.16(c) and 21.21(c.

A trustee corrected the wording during the motion discussion to confirm the board intended to find that good cause did not exist; the chair echoed the corrected phrasing and the board then approved the motion by unanimous vote. The board did not provide additional factual detail in the recorded open session about the underlying allegations or investigative record. The action was recorded as a formal board finding under the cited administrative and education code provisions.

Because the board’s discussion and vote were framed as a statutory finding, officials indicated the action followed the procedures identified in the cited code sections; no further information or a public explanation of facts that led to the finding was provided in open session.
