The Fox Board of Education voted on Jan. 16, 2025 to rehire Superintendent Mark Williams for the 2025–26 school year and extend his contract through June 30, 2028.
The motion to rehire was made by Carolyn McConnell and seconded by Clerk Stacie Fletcher; the board’s recorded vote was three ayes (Stacie Fletcher, Carolyn McConnell, Otto Young) and two absences (President Joey Rodriguez and member Twanna Owens). No board member recorded a no vote or abstention.
The rehiring followed an executive session held to discuss the superintendent’s evaluation and personnel matters under the cited legal authority, 25 O.S. §307(B)(1). After returning to open session, the board read an executive-session minutes compliance statement into the record before taking the rehire vote.
The meeting also included a set of routine fiscal and administrative actions. The board approved the minutes of the Dec. 19, 2024 regular meeting, authorized membership in the Tri-County Interlocal Cooperative for the 2025–26 school year and appointed the superintendent to serve on the Tri-County board for that year. The board filed the activity fund financial report and the district financial report for audit and approved ranges of purchase orders, payroll P.O. numbers and payments for the General Fund, Building Fund and Municipal Tax Levy as listed in the minutes.
Votes at a glance: the consent agenda items (minutes, Tri-County membership, superintendent appointment to Tri-County) were approved (motion by Stacie Fletcher; second by Carolyn McConnell); motions to file the activity fund report and the district financial report for audit carried (motions by Stacie Fletcher and Carolyn McConnell as noted); the board approved purchase orders and payments for audit; the board then recessed for executive session and, on return, rehired the superintendent and adjourned at 7:30 p.m.
The meeting was called to order by Vice-President Otto Young at 7:00 p.m. in the superintendent’s office of Fox Public Schools; the minutes were signed and dated Feb. 20, 2025.
