Gordon ISD tables three staff contracts, approves remainder of 2025–26 contracts
Summary
The board approved most 2025–2026 contracts but tabled contracts for Benita Carlton, Jesse Hallmark and Samuel "Ligon" West. Motion passed 6–0 (one absent); motion made by Sarah Knight and seconded by Laura Jones.
At its March 19 meeting the Gordon ISD Board approved the majority of 2025–2026 staff contracts but chose to table three named contracts for further consideration. The board voted to "table the contracts for Benita Carlton, Jesse Hallmark and Samuel \"Ligon\" West and approve all other contracts as presented." The motion was made by Sarah Knight and seconded by Laura Jones and passed with a recorded vote of Yea: 6, Nay: 0, Absent: 1.
The transcript does not record additional details on the reasons for tabling those three contracts or a timeline for when the board will revisit them. The action preserves approval for the other personnel contracts while leaving specific employment items unresolved for later board action.
Board members present for the vote were Brett Clark, Kathy Culbertson, Laura Jones, Sarah Knight, Jim Ed Kostiha and Brett Trigg; Stacey Wyatt was absent.
