Summary

The board unanimously approved a Texas Education Agency waiver request for four teachers — Brad Moss (1 year left), Kendall Johnson (new to a two-year program), Brooke Beck (new to a two-year program), and Natasia Peterson (years left not specified in the minutes).

The Cherokee Independent School District Board of Education voted unanimously Aug. 3 to approve a Texas Education Agency (TEA) certification-waiver application for four district teachers.

Jennifer Bordner presented the waiver application and discussed the certification status of the teachers. The minutes list the teachers as Natasia Peterson (years remaining not specified), Brad Moss (1 year left), Kendall Johnson (new to a two-year program) and Brooke Beck (new to a two-year program). "Motion by Travis Shannon seconded by Anne Brownlee to approve of the certification waiver. The motion carried unanimously," the minutes record.

The minutes do not include additional detail on the waiver justification, documentation provided to TEA, or any discussion of alternate staffing options; those implementation details were not specified in the record. Because the minutes do not state a specific term for Natasia Peterson, the years remaining for that teacher are marked as not specified in the district record.
