Plano ISD board unanimously moves to propose termination of probationary employee Francine Kilgore
Summary
After a closed session, the Plano ISD Board of Trustees voted 7-0 to propose termination of a probationary employee, Francine Kilgore, pursuant to board policy referenced in the meeting record.
The Plano ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to propose termination of probationary employee Francine Kilgore on Tuesday evening.
Board secretary Tara Lance moved to advance a proposal to terminate Kilgore “pursuant to board policy DFA legal,” and Trustee Elisa Klein seconded the motion. President Lauren Tyra called for a vote; the motion passed unanimously, 7 to 0. Tyra stated, “That motion passes unanimously 7 to 0.”
The motion was taken after the board returned from a closed session held under the Texas Open Meetings Act to discuss personnel matters. The board’s public record references board policy language in the motion; the meeting transcript includes multiple, inconsistent citations to policy codes (DFAA, DAA, DFA) that appear in the record. The transcript identifies the mover as board secretary Tara Lance and the seconder as Trustee Elisa Klein. The trustees recorded as present and voting in favor were President Lauren Tyra, Nancy Humphrey, Tara Lance, Michael Cook, Elisa Klein, Catherine Goodwin and Sam Johnson (joining by Zoom).
The action recorded in the public minutes is a proposal to terminate a probationary employee — the motion authorizes the board to proceed with termination proceedings. The transcript does not record additional details about the personnel matter discussed in closed session, including any supporting facts presented in closed session, nor does it state whether a final termination was effective immediately or subject to additional administrative steps.
