Board handles personnel items in closed session; hires Director of Special Education and approves negotiated settlement
Summary
Following closed-session deliberations, Kingsville ISD trustees approved the employment of a Director of Special Education and authorized a negotiated settlement as described by legal counsel; no action was taken on the Assistant Superintendent of Support Programs item.
The Kingsville ISD Board of Trustees met in closed session Oct. 7 under Texas Government Code §§551.071 and 551.074 to consider employment matters and consult with legal counsel. On returning to open session the board took three actions: it did not act on the Assistant Superintendent of Support Programs employment item; it approved employment of contracted personnel for the Director of Special Education (motion by David Garcia, second by Delma Salinas, vote 7‑0); and it approved a negotiated settlement per counsel’s recommendations (motion by Brian Coufal, second by Martin Chapa, vote 7‑0).
The minutes identify legal counsel Mr. Nick Maddox as advising on the proposed agreement and note that the settlement approval incorporated additional factors provided by counsel. The record does not name the individual hired as Director of Special Education or provide settlement terms, amounts, or personnel contract language; those details were not included in the posted minutes and would appear in personnel or legal files.
