The Westwood ISD Board approved a resolution to sanction the Anderson County 4‑H Organization as an extracurricular activity and considered related adjunct faculty agreements and procedures at the Sept. 9 session. The administration recommended approval; attachments submitted with the agenda included a formal resolution and an adjunct faculty agreement referencing state rules.
The record includes the resolution language citing 19 Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 76.1 and references to 19 TAC §129.21 (attendance accounting for state funding purposes). The attachments list Anderson County Extension agents Holly Black and Truman Lamb and request adjunct faculty status to allow 4‑H activities (competitive and non‑competitive) to be considered for academic eligibility or excused absence under the Student Attendance Handbook procedures. The board motion to approve the resolution carried among trustees present.
The attachments include step‑by‑step procedures for county extension agents to request academic eligibility and forms (Declaration of Eligibility). The minutes do not record detailed conditions or dollar amounts; they do record that Texas A&M AgriLife Extension will request academic eligibility on behalf of 4‑H members when required.
