Santa Rosa ISD board approves superintendent evaluation and contract amendments after closed session

The Santa Rosa Independent School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously on April 14, 2026, to adopt the superintendent's evaluation and approve amendments to the superintendent's contract following an executive session. The board reconvened in open session at 7:44 p.m. after adjourning earlier to closed session under Texas Government Code sections 551.071, 551.072, 551.074 and 551.082.

Trustee Mark Chairez moved the motion to adopt the evaluations and contract amendments; Trustee Lorenzo Ovalle seconded. The motion carried 7-0. The board's roll call earlier in the meeting recorded Alissa Perez (president), Juan M. Perez (vice-president), Mark Chairez, Rene Flores, Lorenzo Ovalle Jr., Rachel Olivarez and Kelly R. Ballin as the trustees present; the meeting record also notes Dr. Isaac Rodriguez, superintendent, and the district's legal counsel in attendance. Public comment preceding the executive session included calls for the board to evaluate the superintendent on factual grounds.

Members proceeded to formalize the executive-session outcome in open session. The minutes record the motion as "to adopt superintendent evaluations and amendments to superintendent's contract as presented in executive session." The board president called for adjournment at approximately 7:45 p.m.; the meeting record includes approval signature lines dated June 22, 2026.

The action resolves the April 14 agenda items related to the superintendent's evaluation and contract. The board did not discuss the substantive terms of the contract or the specific amendment language on the public record during the open session.
