Board approves contract to appoint Dr. Jeff Smith as interim superintendent
Summary
At a short governing-board meeting the Littleton Elementary District approved an employment contract appointing Dr. Jeff Smith as interim superintendent after returning from executive session; the motion passed 4–1 on a roll call vote.
The Littleton Elementary District governing board approved an employment contract appointing Dr. Jeff Smith as interim superintendent after returning from executive session, the board announced.
The board moved into executive session earlier in the meeting "pursuant to ARS 4 3 1.03 a" to discuss the appointment and related legal advice, the Chair said. After the session, board member Sarah moved to approve the appointment contract for "doctor Jeff Smith as interim superintendent," and the motion was seconded.
The Chair called for an individual roll call before the vote. The recorded responses were: Mrs. Reyes — yes; Mrs. Soshinek — yes; Mrs. Barnett — yes; Mr. Seniseros — no; and Mrs. Contreras — yes. "So that is 4 to 1, with an approval of doctor Jeff Smith's contract for interim superintendent," the Chair said.
No additional terms, salary figures or effective dates for the contract were stated on the record; those details were not specified in the meeting transcript. The board then moved to adjourn and ended the meeting at 02:22.
The meeting record shows the board used a Zoom breakout to hold the executive-session portion and paused the public recording during that time, a staff member said. The Chair reminded the public that a call to the public was discretionary under the Arizona open meeting law and was not included for this session; the Chair said members of the public could submit comments in writing or provide them at the January board meeting.
The board did not discuss other agenda items on the public record before adjourning. The transcript contains no further detail about Dr. Jeff Smith's contract conditions or start date.
