Board votes to enter executive session for superintendent evaluation and personnel matters
Summary
Near the end of the meeting the board voted to adjourn into executive session under Connecticut statute to discuss appointment, employment, evaluation, health or dismissal of a public officer or employee, allowing the superintendent and cabinet to join for the superintendent’s annual evaluation.
At the conclusion of public business on June 2, the New Canaan Board of Education voted to adjourn into executive session under Connecticut General Statutes cited by the chair to permit discussion of appointment, employment, performance evaluation, health and dismissal of a public officer or employee.
The chair noted that the superintendent and cabinet members may join the board for the purposes of the board’s annual evaluation of the superintendent. The chair asked for and received a motion to adjourn into executive session; the motion was seconded (Laura) and, after a voice vote, the chair announced the motion passed.
The transcript records the statutory citation and the board’s approved adjournment but does not include any deliberations from the executive session itself. Executive sessions are permitted under state law for the stated personnel matters; the meeting record indicates the board moved promptly to that closed-session discussion.
