Argyle ISD delegates authority to superintendent for purchase of attendance credit
Summary
Trustees voted unanimously to delegate authority to the superintendent to obligate the district under Texas Education Code provisions for purchasing attendance credit, authorizing agreement execution for the 2023–24 school year.
The Argyle ISD Board of Trustees unanimously delegated contractual authority to the superintendent to obligate the district for the purchase of attendance credit for the 2023–2024 school year. Trustee Craig Hawkesworth made the motion; Trustee Josh Westrom seconded and the board voted 7-0.
The motion text recorded in the minutes states in part: "I move for the 2023-2024 school year, we delegated contractual authority to obligate the school district under Texas Education Code (TEC) §11.1511(c)(4) to the superintendent, solely for the purpose of obligating the district under TEC, $48.257 and TEC, Chapter 49, Subchapters A and D, and the rules adopted by the commissioner of education as authorized under TEC, 49.006. This included approval of the Agreement for the Purchase of Attendance Credit or the Agreement for the Purchase of Attendance Credit Netting Chapter 48 Funding." The minutes record the board vote as 7-0.
The meeting text cites specific statutory authorities (TEC §11.1511(c)(4), TEC Chapter 49 and TEC §49.006) as part of the delegated authority. The numeric figure recorded in the motion text appears in the meeting minutes as "$48.257"; that value is ambiguous in the minutes and is flagged in clarifying details for verification with district finance records.
