Board ratifies consent agenda, delegates limited hiring authority and adopts grants manual
Summary
White Oak ISD trustees approved the consent agenda on May 11, ratifying the 2026–27 survey, delegating May–August hiring authority for non-administrative contractual employees to the superintendent (with reporting requirements), and approving the State and Federal Grants Manual.
The board approved its consent agenda, including the 2026–27 Survey Ratification and approval of the State and Federal Grants Manual. Dr. David Ummel moved "I make a motion to approve the following items from the consent agenda, as presented," and Mrs. Stephanie McKinney seconded; the motion passed with four yeas and three absences.
As part of the consent agenda the board delegated final authority to employ contractual employees in non-administrative positions to the superintendent from May 1 through August 31, with the requirement that the superintendent report any hires made under that delegation at the next regular meeting. The transcript records the delegation language but does not list names of employees hired under the authority.
