Pleasant Hill School Board unanimously approves resignation agreement with Miss Hill after executive session
Summary
At its Jan. 15 meeting the Pleasant Hill School Board recessed into executive session to hear a superintendent recommendation about the potential dismissal of a licensed contract teacher, then withdrew that consideration and unanimously approved a resignation agreement with Miss Hill.
The Pleasant Hill School Board unanimously approved a resignation agreement with Miss Hill on Jan. 15, after briefly recessing into executive session to hear the superintendent's recommendation regarding the possible dismissal of a licensed contract teacher.
A board member moved to "withdraw item 5.1, consideration of the superintendent's recommendation for dismissal and instead, consider the resignation of Miss Hill as action item 5.1," and the motion was seconded and approved by a unanimous voice vote. The board then approved a second motion to "approve the resignation agreement of Miss Hill and authorize the superintendent to execute any final documents necessary to formalize the agreement," which also passed unanimously.
The board announced the executive session was held under Oregon Revised Statutes cited by the chair as ORS 342.895 and ORS 192.662(b) to discuss a personnel matter and to consult with legal counsel; the chair said the recess was expected to take about 15 to 30 minutes. After the votes, the chair said, "In accepting this resignation agreement, we as a board believe this decision allows all parties to move forward," and emphasized the board's focus on supporting students, staff and families and maintaining a stable learning environment.
Board members voting were recorded collectively as passing both motions unanimously; the chair called for individual votes during each motion and announced the measures passed by a unanimous voice vote. The board set its next meeting for Feb. 9 at the community center and offered thanks to staff involved in resolving the matter.
No further details about the terms of the resignation agreement, the superintendent's original recommendation, or the personnel involved were provided in open session.
