Board agenda schedules three closed KOMA sessions for security, negotiations and personnel
Summary
The agenda sets a closed executive session to discuss USD 413 Police Department school security matters, a second closed session for employer-employee negotiations, and a third for non-elected personnel (resignations/retirements/hirings/transfers), with reconvening planned after each; the transcript records the agenda language but not the closed-session deliberations.
The board’s April 2 agenda schedules three separate closed executive sessions under the Kansas Open Meetings Act (KOMA). The first is to discuss USD 413 Police Department matters "to ensure the security of the school, its buildings and/or its systems" as permitted under the school-security exception. The agenda then calls for reconvening to open meeting to take any desired actions. Two additional closed sessions are listed: one for employer-employee negotiations and another for non-elected personnel matters including resignations, retirements, employments and transfers. Each closed session is accompanied by a stated reconvening to take actions as necessary.
The public transcript segments show the board’s invocation of KOMA exceptions on the agenda but do not include the substance of the closed-session discussions or the actions taken during the sessions in the provided materials. For any final actions or motions resulting from closed sessions, consult the official minutes or subsequent open-meeting items.
