Summary

At the Oct. 6 special meeting, the board voted 4–3 to rescind the designation of Assistant Superintendent Leah Bobbitt as the 'Lone Finalist.' The minutes list the votes but do not specify the office or the reasons for rescinding the designation.

The West Rusk County Consolidated Independent School District Board of Trustees voted 4–3 on Oct. 6 to rescind Leah Bobbitt’s status as the "Lone Finalist." Trustee Matt Eastwood made the motion to rescind; Lorenzo Tavarez seconded. The minutes record the ayes as Matt Eastwood, Will Sudweeks, Chris Pratt and Lorenzo Tavarez, and the nays as Sandra Smith, Iris Hammontree and Robert Anderson.

The minutes do not identify which specific position Bobbitt had been the lone finalist for, nor do they record the reasons for the board’s action. Bobbitt is listed elsewhere in the minutes as Assistant Superintendent, but the record stops short of linking the rescission to a named vacancy, contract offer, or stated cause.
