Board approves attorney‑client‑privileged settlements after staff flags employment and special‑education matters

Jeremy Turner reported that the administration had nine employment matters and listed item numbers for the board’s attention.

"Jeremy, we have 9 employment matters, except which I wrote emails to the board. 2 0 1, 3 0 9 4, 2 0 9 10, and 2 0 9 15. Administration request that the board address those items," Turner said.

Later in the meeting a board member moved, "pursuant to the settlements agreed upon in this, I move for approval of the attorney client privilege here." The motion was seconded and the transcript records a voice vote—"All on favor say aye. Aye. Post motion carried." The transcript also references a special‑education issue and a scheduled disciplinary meeting related to employment or student matters.

Why it matters: employment matters and attorney‑client‑privileged settlements can involve personnel decisions, contract and legal exposure, and, where special education is involved, sensitive student needs. The transcript provides item numbers and records the motion to approve settlements under attorney‑client privilege; it does not disclose settlement details, individual names or terms in the public record.
