Board roundup: audit plan revised, consent agenda approved and contract termination authorized
Summary
Trustees approved the internal audit mid‑year progress report and a revised audit plan (reducing planned FTE to 1.5), adopted the consent agenda unanimously, and voted to terminate the probationary contract of Daniel Didock after closed session.
At its Dec. 9 meeting, the Spring ISD Board of Trustees took several procedural and personnel actions.
Internal audit: Courtney Smith, the district’s internal auditor, presented the mid‑year internal audit progress report for fiscal 2025–26. Smith said 11 audit engagements are complete, five projects are in progress and administrative tasks are underway. Because of a vacancy in the audit office, Smith proposed revising the plan from an assumed 2.0 FTE to 1.5 FTE for the year; the board voted to approve the mid‑year report and the revised audit plan. Trustee Adams moved the measure and Trustee Newhouse seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
Consent agenda: Trustee McDaniel moved and Trustee Correa seconded approval of the evening’s consent agenda; the board approved the consent agenda unanimously.
Personnel action: After a closed executive session held under the Texas Open Meetings Act, the board returned to open session and Trustee Adams moved (seconded by Trustee Newhouse) to terminate the 2025–26 probationary employment contract of Daniel Didock at the end of the contract term, "in the best interest of the district," and to authorize the superintendent or designee to provide notice. The motion carried unanimously.
Adjournment: The board adjourned at 11:30 p.m.
Notes: The audit plan revision reflects a staffing vacancy; the auditor said the vacancy has been posted and she and staff are reviewing applications.
