Morgan County Board of Education holds executive session to interview superintendent candidates; no action taken

The Morgan County Board of Education met in a special called session on April 15, 2026, and recessed into executive session to interview three candidates for the district superintendent position before returning to open session with no formal action taken.

During the opening remarks, the board asked Mr. Flowers to give the invocation. Mr. Flowers said, "Heavenly Father, we thank you once again, Father, for blessing us tonight," and closed the prayer with "Amen." The meeting then recited the Pledge of Allegiance.

A board member moved to approve the meeting agenda; another member seconded the motion and the board signaled approval by raised hands. The chair then announced a break session for the interviews and explained that "Dr. Flowers and Ms. Mack will be handling" parts of the public engagement and guidance on how the community can provide online feedback for the superintendent search.

A board member moved that the board enter executive session "to hear the superintendent talk to the candidates." That motion was seconded and members indicated their assent by raising their hands; the board recessed into executive session to conduct the candidate interviews. When the board returned to open session the chair stated that "no action was taken in the executive session." The transcript does not record any formal selection, vote, or candidate names during the open meeting.

Shortly after reconvening, board member Mr. Driggers moved to adjourn the meeting; the motion was seconded and approved unanimously by raised hands.

The special meeting focused on the superintendent search process and candidate interviews conducted in executive session; no public vote or appointment occurred during the open meeting. The board indicated that community feedback would be solicited online with assistance from Dr. Flowers and Ms. Mack. No dates for future public actions or formal votes were specified in the transcript.
