The Spring ISD board recorded multiple formal outcomes during and after the Nov. 4 work session and closed session. Key actions recorded in open session and after reconvening included the following:
- Optimization vendor (CSG), phase 1: Motion to proceed with a limited (phase 1) engagement of Civic Solutions Group passed 5–2. Motion by Trustee Winifred Adams; second by Trustee Natasha McDaniel. Administration must supply an itemized scope of phase 1 deliverables before any additional authorization.
- Aggregated vendor purchases > $100,000: Trustees gave voice approval to the procurement report of aggregated purchases greater than $100,000 for the referenced period. Motion: Trustee Adams; second: Trustee McDaniel. Vote recorded as unanimous in open session.
- Closed-session personnel actions: After the board's closed meeting, trustees made and approved multiple personnel motions recorded on the open record. Those included issuance of a school district teaching permit for Ashley Felix (motion carried unanimously), immediate termination motions for certain probationary or term contracts (motions carried unanimously as recorded), approval of a probationary contract for Lily Smith (motion carried unanimously) and authorization to pursue dismissal of a specified TEA administrative complaint number. The board recorded the motions and vote outcomes in open session following the closed meeting; each motion was moved and seconded as reflected in the minutes and recorded as carried unanimously.
Why it matters: These actions reflect the board's governance role over procurement thresholds, vendor engagements and personnel decisions; trustees asked for documentation or additional detail where appropriate (e.g., detailed vendor phase-1 deliverables and procurement line-item reports).
