Pasadena ISD board approves superintendent's recommendation to propose nonrenewal of a campus content specialist
Summary
The board voted 6–0 on May 5 to approve the superintendent's recommendation to propose nonrenewal of the 2025–2026 term contract of Melodneice Burt, High School Campus Content Specialist at Tegeler Community School, and directed the superintendent to provide written notice in compliance with Chapter 21 of the Texas Education Code.
At its May 5 special meeting, the Pasadena ISD Board of Trustees approved the superintendent's recommendation to propose the nonrenewal of the 2025–2026 term contract of Melodneice Burt, a High School Campus Content Specialist at Tegeler Community School, effective at the end of the 2025–2026 school year. "Motion by Nelda Sullivan, seconded by Marshall Kendrick to approve the Superintendent's recommendation to propose nonrenewal of the 2025-2026 term employment contract between Pasadena ISD and Melodneice Burt, High School Campus Content Specialist at Tegeler Community School, effective at the end of the 2025-2026 school year, and related actions," the minutes state.
The board further moved to authorize and direct the superintendent or her designee to provide Ms. Burt with written notice of the board's action "in compliance with Chapter 21 of the Texas Education Code as discussed in executive session." The minutes record the motion, the mover and seconder, and a unanimous 6–0 vote in favor; no additional factual detail about the grounds for the recommendation, supporting documentation, or statements from Ms. Burt appear in the minutes.
Because the minutes reflect only the board's recorded action and its instruction to provide notice, questions about the factual basis for the nonrenewal, any rebuttal from the employee, or subsequent appeals are not addressed in the meeting record and would be documented in separate personnel files or communications required under Chapter 21 of the Texas Education Code.
