Board member Jesse Vane moved to approve the closed-session agenda; Board member Laura Brat seconded. A roll-call vote followed: Brat, Herd, Vane, Orway and Clark each voted yes, and the motion passed unanimously, 5-0. The board then recessed to closed session and indicated it would reconvene at 6.

The board’s closed session will consider employee discipline, a personnel appointment for a director of Student Services and Educational Equity, and labor negotiation strategy with representatives and employee organizations.
