Summary
The board entered closed session under Wis. Stat. 19.85(1)(c) and (g) to consider employment and legal-strategy matters, then returned to open session and approved administration contracts while limiting the maintenance director's pay increase to 50% of the proposed amount.
At 7:21 p.m. on May 21 the Flambeau School District Board of Education voted 7-0 to enter closed session under Wisconsin Statutes 19.85(1)(c) and (g) to consider employment, promotion, compensation and performance-evaluation data of public employees and to confer with legal counsel regarding litigation strategy.
The board returned to open session at 8:40 p.m. by unanimous vote. After the closed session, the board approved administration contracts for the 2025–2026 school year as recommended by Interim District Administrator Sheri Kopka, with a specific provision that the maintenance director will receive only 50% of the proposed pay increase "due to his time in his position." The board recorded the vote to approve administration contracts as 7-0. The minutes note the closed-session citation explicitly as Wis. Stat. 19.85(1)(c) and (g).
