Splendora ISD board held closed-session interviews for Position 3 under Texas Open Meetings Act

'The Board of Trustees will now go into a Closed session. This Closed Session will be held for purposes authorized by the Texas Open Meetings Act, Texas Government Code(s) Personnel - Section 551.074, Consultation with Attorney Section 551.071, concerning any and all purposes permitted by the Act. No voting will take place in the closed meeting. Any action the Board wishes to take as part of discussions in closed session will take place after the Board reconvenes in the open meeting. It is now 5:03 pm.'

That announcement appears in the minutes for the May 6, 2026 special called meeting and precedes listed closed-session business: specifically, "Discuss and interview the candidate for Board Position #3." The minutes show the board returned to open session at 9:00 p.m. and then took a formal motion to appoint a candidate to that seat.

The transcript does not elaborate on interview content or identify other candidates; the recorded minutes note that any action resulting from the closed-session discussion would be taken in open session, which the board did when it voted later that evening.
