Board returns from executive session and approves hiring discussed in closed meeting
Summary
After a closed executive session held under district policy, the North Little Rock School District board voted to approve the hiring of personnel discussed in the session; the motion was moved by the board president, seconded, and passed by voice vote with no tally provided.
After returning to open session, the North Little Rock School District board voted to approve hiring of personnel discussed in its executive session.
The board president announced the board was "back in session" and moved "that we accept the hiring Employment of personnel" as discussed in closed session. The motion was seconded and the president stated, "Being that it is employment personnel, there can be no discussion." The board voted in favor and the president said, "It passes." The meeting then moved to adjournment and the board voted to adjourn.
The board had announced the executive session under North Little Rock School District policy 1.14a and cited Arkansas law requiring the specific purpose of an executive session be announced publicly before entering closed session; the president listed employment, appointments, promotions, demotions, disciplining or resignation of employees as the purposes discussed. The meeting record does not include a roll-call tally for the hiring vote or details on the number or titles of personnel approved; those details were presented in closed session and not read into the public record.
