During public comment at the May 11 board meeting, three residents raised concerns about personnel and the board's role; the board then voted unanimously to enter executive session to discuss personnel matters and later exited with no public action reported.
Three community members used the public comment period at the May 11 Hay Springs Public Schools board meeting to raise concerns about personnel and the board's handling of personnel matters.
Aubry Anderson read a prepared statement expressing her views on personnel and administration. Keith Kelly also addressed personnel and administrative concerns, and Brenda Johnson commented on the board's role regarding personnel issues. The transcript records the speakers and subjects but does not include verbatim quotations from the statements.
Following public comment the board moved to enter an executive session "for the protection of the public's interest and to prevent needless injury to the reputation of individuals" to discuss personnel matters; the motion was made by D. Russell, seconded by M. Kearns and passed by roll call 6-0. President J. Anderson declared the board in executive session at 7:17 p.m.
The board later voted unanimously to exit executive session (motion by K. Stock; second by D. Russell) and President Anderson declared the board out of executive session and adjourned the meeting at 8:13 p.m. The transcript states that personnel matters were discussed in executive session; no details of those discussions were disclosed during open meeting minutes or in the public transcript.
