McAllen ISD board accepts superintendent evaluation, extends contract and approves pay increase
Summary
After closed‑session review, trustees accepted the superintendent's evaluation, extended his contract by one year and approved a 2.5% base‑pay increase; transcript records the extension motion passing though the recorded vote tally in the audio transcript is incomplete.
The McAllen Independent School District Board of Trustees on Dec. 11 accepted the superintendent's evaluation, moved to extend his contract by one year, and approved a 2.5% increase to his base pay following closed‑session consideration.
At the public meeting after reconvening from closed session, a trustee moved to accept the evaluation and the board approved the evaluation by unanimous voice vote. The board then moved separately to extend the superintendent's contract by one year and to include a 2.5% increase to base pay (reported in the meeting as equivalent to $7,750). A trustee seconded the motion and the board voted; the transcript records the motion "passes" but the numeric tally in the audio is garbled and incomplete (the record shows "Motion passes 5 to" without finishing the tally).
Because the transcript's vote tally for that motion is incomplete, the article reports the board approved the extension and pay increase as recorded in the meeting audio, and flags that the official minutes or the district's published vote roll should be consulted for the exact vote count.
The board also reported taking action on other closed‑session items, including human resources recommendations and a list of resignations and retirees; those HR motions were approved and recorded as unanimous in the meeting minutes.
Trustees closed the meeting after announcing upcoming meetings and holiday messages.
