Presidio ISD board votes 7–0 to expel tenth‑grade student to DAEP after closed hearing
Summary
After a closed‑session expulsion hearing, the Presidio ISD board returned to open session and unanimously approved expulsion of a tenth‑grade student to the district alternative education program (DAEP); no names were disclosed and no action was taken in closed session.
Trustees convened in closed session Feb. 18 under Tex. Gov't Code §551.074 for personnel and disciplinary matters, including an expulsion hearing for a tenth‑grade student. The board returned to open session late and moved to expel the student to the district DAEP; the motion by Marco Lujan, seconded by Iris Galindo, carried 7–0.
The board stated no votes were taken while in closed session and provided no identifying information about the student in open session. The district recorded the outcome (expulsion to DAEP) and characterized the closed session as required by state law. No additional sanctions or public details were released in the minutes.
Board members followed statutory confidentiality rules for student disciplinary hearings; the board’s action was recorded in the public minutes but the district did not disclose pupil‑identifying information.
