Summary

The Fowler Public Schools Board of Education moved into executive session multiple times on Nov. 11 to discuss personnel matters under the non-elected personnel exception of the Kansas Open Meetings Act.
Cathy Heinz moved, seconded by TJ Milford, to enter executive session to discuss personnel matters of non-elected personnel in order to protect privacy interests, citing the Kansas Open Meetings Act; the motion carried 7-0 with the open meeting to resume at 8:37 p.m. The minutes record that Corri McDowell exited the executive session at 8:33 p.m.
The board recorded additional motions to enter executive session later in the evening (each motion carried 7-0) with listed resume times of 8:47 p.m., 8:52 p.m., and 8:57 p.m. The open meeting reconvened at 8:57 p.m. The minutes do not record any substantive personnel decisions in the open session record beyond the board’s use of the statutory executive-session exception and the stated times.
The minutes identify the topic category (personnel matters of non-elected personnel) and protect privacy by using executive session per the Kansas Open Meetings Act. The board then continued open-business items and adjourned later that evening.
