Board enters executive session citing personnel, negotiations and student-discipline statutes
Summary
On Sept. 29, 2025 the Jasper CCSD 17 board voted to enter executive session at 6:55 p.m. citing statutes for personnel, collective bargaining, and student disciplinary matters, then exited at 7:21 p.m.; minutes do not disclose discussion content.
At 6:55 p.m. the Jasper CCSD 17 board voted to move into executive closed session under school board policy 2:220-E2 and cited statutory bases including 5 ILCS 120/2C(1) (appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance or dismissal of specific employees), 5 ILCS 120/2C(2) (collective negotiating matters), and 5 ILCS 120/2(C)(9) (student disciplinary cases). The motion to enter executive session was made by Justin Atwood and seconded by Shawn Otey and carried by roll-call vote; the board returned to open session at 7:21 p.m. after a recorded motion to exit executive session.
The minutes record only the statutory bases for going into closed session and the times of entry and exit; they do not disclose the substance of discussions or any actions taken while in executive session. Later in the meeting the board voted to approve the executive session minutes as recorded on a motion by Wesley Legg, seconded by Josh Zurliene.
