Summary
At a Nov. 19 special meeting, the Union Grove ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to enter closed session at 5:06 p.m. to interview superintendent applicants under Texas Government Code Section 551.074; the minutes record no action after the closed session.
The Union Grove Independent School District Board of Trustees convened a special meeting on Nov. 19, 2025, in the high school library and voted to enter a closed session to interview candidates for the superintendent position. Trustee Tim Bower moved to adjourn to closed session at 5:06 p.m.; Trustee Tim Turner seconded the motion, and "All voted YES, Motion carried. Unanimous," according to the minutes.
The minutes record that the closed session was conducted under Texas Government Code, Section 551.074, which governs personnel matters and authorizes a governing body to meet privately to consider the appointment, employment, evaluation, reassignment, duties, discipline or dismissal of a public officer or employee. The document notes "Interview Superintendent Applicants" as the purpose of the closed session and states explicitly under "Action following closed session - None" that the Board took no formal action after returning to open session. The special meeting began at 5:00 p.m.; members present were Jody Day, Tim Turner, Justin Smith, Tim Bower, Karey Barbee, Michael Potter and Brian Cox. Brian Gray, superintendent, and Terri Woodfin, superintendent's secretary, were also present.
The minutes also record routine housekeeping: the board reached consensus to approve the agenda as presented and there were no public comments during the meeting. The meeting was adjourned following a motion by Trustee Justin Smith, seconded by Trustee Michael Potter; the minutes again note the vote was unanimous.
