Board cites Texas Government Code in closed session for grievance involving personnel and student records
Summary
The Rockwall ISD Board moved into closed session under Texas Government Code §§551.074, 551.082 and 551.0821 to hear a parent's level 3 grievance that involves complaints against district employees and student information; the board then returned and recorded a motion to deny the grievance.
Board President Frank Consulman announced the meeting would proceed in closed session "pursuant to Texas government code sections 551.074, 551.082, and 551.0821," citing personnel matters and student information as the reason for confidentiality. The board moved into closed session at 5:04 p.m. for a level 3 grievance hearing.
Consulman told the room the employees who were the subject of complaints had not requested an open hearing. The board returned to open session at 6:31 p.m., called for a motion and recorded action to deny the grievance and uphold the prior administrative decision. The transcript does not provide the names of employees or specific facts discussed in closed session; those details are not part of the public record under the cited statutes.
