In a recent school board meeting, trustees expressed significant concerns regarding the approval of the district and campus improvement plans, ultimately leading to a motion to reject them. Trustee Roach Davis initiated the motion, citing a lack of adequate information and transparency surrounding the plans. Trustee Morgan seconded the motion, emphasizing the need for further discussion before any approval could be granted.

Trustee Vice President Brer Cook raised alarms about the bond oversight committee's exclusion from the presentation process, stating that the committee had not been invited to review critical information related to the bond resources. Cook articulated discomfort with moving forward without proper oversight, highlighting the importance of accountability in managing substantial community resources.

The discussion revealed a broader concern about the decision-making process, with Cook insisting that the bond committee should have the opportunity to review presentations before any votes are cast. She expressed frustration over the lack of communication and transparency, stating, \"All we have is our integrity,\" and called for a halt to the approval process until the oversight committee could be involved.

Dr. Hudson, responding to the concerns, clarified that the bond oversight committee's role is to ensure compliance with established processes, which have been reviewed by legal counsel. He reiterated that the hiring process for project management services is the responsibility of the district, not the oversight committee.

Despite the tension, Trustee Morgan reminded the board that the community had supported the bond initiative, indicating a desire to move forward positively. The meeting concluded with a clear directive to reassess the improvement plans and ensure that all stakeholders are adequately informed and involved in the decision-making process.
