Mesquite ISD board approves multiple principal appointments and administrative contracts
Summary
Trustees approved administrative term contracts and appointed several principals — Nicole Donnell (Smith Elementary), Kelsey Baxter (Gentry Elementary) and Caitlin Brant (Florence Elementary) — and ratified other administrative hires and role changes.
The board approved the consent agenda and then moved through personnel actions that included administrative term contracts and multiple principal appointments.
