Summary

After a motion to convene a closed session to consider the superintendent’s Individual Development Plan failed, the Covert Public School Board voted unanimously to discuss the IDP in open session; a subsequent motion to accept the IDP received no support.

President Geoffrey Rose called the Covert Public School Board to order Feb. 9 and the board considered how to handle the superintendent’s Individual Development Plan (IDP). A motion to convene a closed session under Section 8(1)(a) of the Open Meetings Act failed on roll call (three ayes, two nays). Shortly after, the board voted 5–0 to discuss the IDP in open session.

Rose then moved to accept the superintendent’s IDP “as written,” but the motion received no support and did not advance. The transcript records the closed-session request and the subsequent open-session decision; it does not record additional public details of the IDP in the meeting minutes.
