Wilson County board approves 2-year contract for potential director Travis Mayfield
Summary
The Wilson County Board of Education approved the employment contract for Travis Mayfield after rejecting an amendment to extend the term to four years. The contract will use annually developed performance goals and includes an 18-month review; the vote was 6–0.
The Wilson County Board of Education voted to approve the contract of employment for Travis Mayfield at a June 11 special-call meeting, with the motion passing unanimously, 6–0. Chair remarks closed the meeting after the vote and the board congratulated Mayfield.
Mayfield, who identified himself to the board as a "potential director," told the panel he preferred moving detailed performance metrics out of a fixed contract and into an annual performance document the board and director would develop together. The board debated contract length and an amendment to extend the term to four years failed on a 3–3 tie; the board then approved the original motion (with a sick-days edit) and announced the contract passed 6–0. As part of the public comment discussion, Mayfield said, "I plan to work here more than 4 more years." (Travis Mayfield).
