Board holds closed session on personnel, student placement and safety under Illinois Open Meetings Act exemptions
Summary
The Lindop School District 92 board entered closed session citing 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1),(4),(8),(9),(10) to discuss appointment, employment and performance of employees, student disciplinary and special education placement matters, and safety/security; the closed session ran from about 6:10 p.m. to 7:56 p.m.
The board voted to enter closed session early in the meeting, citing the Illinois Open Meetings Act exemptions for personnel and student matters: 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1),(4),(8),(9),(10). The motion to move into closed session was made by Board President Patterson and seconded by Mr. Myrick; the motion "carried on a voice vote" with ayes listed in the minutes.
The minutes record the closed session convened at 6:10 p.m. and adjourned at 7:56 p.m. The public record in the open session notes the items categories discussed in closed session (appointments, employment, compensation, student disciplinary and special-education placements, and school safety/security) but contains no further personnel details because those matters are confidential under state law. The board reconvened in open session and proceeded to act on consent agenda items and table several personnel approvals.
