Suffern board adjourns to executive session to review superintendent evaluation

The Suffern Central School District Board of Education voted Tuesday to adjourn into an executive session to discuss the employment history and performance of particular persons and to review the superintendent's annual evaluation.

The board chair opened the regular meeting and asked for a motion to enter executive session for the stated personnel and evaluation purposes. A motion was made on the record; the transcript does not identify who moved it. Mr. Shapiro seconded the motion. Mr. Donnelly then called for a voice vote; those present responded "I," and no opposition or abstentions were announced. The board adjourned to executive session and planned to resume public proceedings at approximately 7:30 p.m.

The transcript does not record additional public details about the superintendent, the content of the evaluation, or any roll-call vote counts. The chair specifically framed the executive session as covering employment history and performance and the annual superintendent review, indicating those matters would be discussed in closed session under the board's personnel deliberation authority.

Miss Roxan Bryan was noted as absent at the start of the meeting and was expected to join later; the transcript does not show whether she participated in the subsequent executive session. The board did not take any further public action on personnel at the time the meeting moved to closed session.

The board is scheduled to resume its public meeting at about 7:30 p.m.; the transcript ends with the adjournment to executive session and does not include outcomes from that closed session.
