Following an executive session under Texas Government Code Sections 551.071 and 551.074, the Royal Independent School District Board of Trustees accepted a recommendation to propose mid-contract termination and suspension without pay pending discharge for term contract employee Israel Chandler.
The minutes record the motion in open session: "I move that the Board accept the recommendation and propose mid-contract termination and suspension without pay pending discharge for the term contract of Israel Chandler for good cause and further move to authorize the district to deliver the appropriate notice of proposed termination to Israel Chandler in accordance with legal requirements," made by Cori Vahalik and seconded by Melissa Woods; the motion was recorded as passed with Elton Foster, Scott Hartman, Rose Jones, Traci Seward, Cori Vahalik, and Melissa Woods each voting yea.
The minutes show the board convened to executive session at 8:09 p.m. under Texas Government Code Section 551.071 (consultation with the board's attorney regarding pending or contemplated litigation) and Section 551.074 (personnel deliberations). The minutes do not include the substance of the executive-session discussion (as permitted by law) and do not provide further factual detail about the grounds for the proposed termination; the action in open session authorized delivery of the notice of proposed termination and suspension without pay pending discharge.
