Marble Falls ISD board finds teacher Lisa Perkins abandoned contract, votes 7-0
Summary
After an executive session, the board voted 7-0 to find there was no good cause for teacher Lisa Perkins to abandon her contract, citing Texas Education Code Sec. 21.105(c)(2) and 19 TAC Sec. 249.14(j); the minutes record the formal finding but do not include Perkins' response or additional evidence.
Following its executive session, the Marble Falls ISD Board approved a finding that teacher Lisa Perkins abandoned her employment contract and failed to comply with statutory resignation provisions.
The minutes state that, "the Board approved to issue a finding in accordance with Texas Education Code, Sec. 21.105(c)(2) and 19 Texas Administrative Code, Sec. 249.14(j), that good cause did not exist for Lisa Perkins to abandon her employment contract with Marble Falls ISD and fail to comply with Texas Education Code provisions regarding resignations." The motion, moved by Gary Boshears and seconded by Crystal Tubig, passed 7-0.
The district minutes do not record any statement from Lisa Perkins, nor do they summarize evidence presented in executive session; they record only the board's formal finding and the statutory citations relied upon. The minutes also show the board later authorized the superintendent to contact the Texas Education Agency seeking sanctions related to the finding.
