Summary
During its March 10, 2025 meeting the Goessel USD 411 Board entered two executive sessions under the Kansas Open Meetings Act: one to discuss an action adversely affecting a student, and one to review an employee's performance. The board returned to open session with no public action recorded in the minutes.
The Goessel USD 411 Board of Education held two executive sessions at the March 10, 2025 meeting under the Kansas Open Meetings Act (KOMA).
The first executive session, moved by Ben Schrag and seconded by Patrick Flaming, was convened to discuss an action adversely affecting a student; the board entered executive session at 8:23 p.m. and returned to open session at 8:43 p.m. The minutes record that Joni Smith and Cynthia Goerzen left at 8:23 p.m. and that the session was held to protect student privacy. No public action or vote resulting from that session is recorded in the minutes.
Immediately after, the board moved into a second executive session to discuss an individual employee's performance under the KOMA exception for non-elected personnel. That session began at 8:43 p.m. and the board returned to open meeting at 8:48 p.m. The minutes note that Joni Smith temporarily left the meeting during this period; no decisions or disciplinary actions were recorded in the public minutes.
Both motions to enter executive session were recorded as carried unanimously. The board then adjourned at 8:48 p.m.
