Lindsay ISD board denies Level Three student appeal after closed-session deliberation
Summary
At a May 13 special meeting, the Lindsay ISD Board of Trustees reconvened after an executive session and voted 6-0 to deny a Level Three student appeal under district policy FNG(LOCAL). The board cited personnel and student-privacy statutes during closed deliberations.
The Lindsay Independent School District Board of Trustees denied a Level Three student appeal at a special meeting May 13, 2026. Board President Bridget Anderle called the meeting to order at 6:00 PM in the high school library; after an executive session the board reconvened at 6:42 PM and approved a motion to deny the appeal by a 6-0 vote. The motion was made by Chris Garner and seconded by Corey Anderle.
The board held closed deliberations under Texas Government Code provisions cited on the record — section 551.074 for personnel matters, section 551.0821 for personally identifiable student information and section 551.129 for attorney consultation. The record does not state the specifics of the underlying student discipline or the board's legal advice; the hearing was conducted and deliberated in closed session as permitted by those statutes.
No members of the public spoke during the meeting; the minutes note two audience members were present but list no public comments. With no further business, trustee Jacob Fuhrmann moved to adjourn at 6:43 PM; Brian Neu seconded and the motion passed 6-0. The district identified the matter only as a Level Three appeal under policy FNG(LOCAL).
