Silsbee ISD board holds closed session on superintendent evaluation, contract and pay; takes no public action
Summary
At a Dec. 9 special meeting the Silsbee Independent School District Board of Trustees met in executive session to discuss the superintendents evaluation, a potential contract extension and compensation; the board reconvened with no action taken.
The Silsbee Independent School District Board of Trustees entered an executive session on Dec. 9 at 6:03 p.m. to consider personnel matters related to the superintendent, including the evaluation, a possible contract extension, salary and benefits. President Janis Holt called the closed session under Texas Government Code 551.074(a)(1).
The boards written record lists the items discussed as "Discussion of Superintendent's Evaluation, Contract Extension, Salary, and Benefits." Trustees present included Janis Holt, Derrell Ferguson, Kenneth Fisher, Jonta Miller, James de Garavilla and Dana Hancock; Trustee Kenneth Rulon arrived at 6:03 p.m. Staff member Missy Sundgren was listed among staff and guests.
The board reconvened in open session at 8:33 p.m.; the minutes state that "no action was taken for discussion during executive session." Because Texas Government Code 551.074(a)(1) authorizes closed deliberations on personnel matters, the boards deliberations on the superintendent were held out of public view and no vote or public directive on employment terms was recorded in open session.
Board members did not place any public motions regarding hiring, pay or contract terms on the record at the meetings conclusion. Any future public action on the superintendents contract or compensation would need to be reflected in subsequent open-session minutes or an agenda item specifying such a vote.
