Yes, sir.
Today is Tuesday, January 18, 2022, and the time is 7.52 p.m. On behalf of my colleagues, I welcome everyone to this evening's special board meeting. The board has just reconvened from closed meeting. In accordance with Chapter 551 of the Texas Government Code, Any action arising from discussions in a closed meeting must be taken in an open meeting. Agenda item 4.1, consider board approval of the superintendent's annual evaluation and approval of an amendment or revision to the superintendent's contract.
Mr. President?
Yes.
I move that the Board of Trustees approves the superintendent's annual evaluation and the revision to the superintendent's contract as discussed in closed meeting.
Mr. President?
Yes.
I move to divide the motion to separate the vote into one for the superintendent contract and a second for the amendment to compensation. Second.
Okay, so I think I got it. So we have a motion by Mrs. Fox and a second by Mrs. Champagne to amend the current motion to break the motion into one for the superintendent contract and one for the superintendent compensation. Is that correct? Amended compensation. All those in favor of the amendment, raise your hand. All those opposed? The motion fails. No, not the motion, the amendment. The amendment fails, thank you. So we're back to our original motion. Thank you. We're back to the original motion. We have a motion by Mr. Redman, a second by Mrs. Vann. Is there any questions on this amendment? I'm sorry, the motion? I'm sorry, Justin. I'm tired. We'll get there.
Mr. President?
What's that?
I would like to say something real quick about the motion. motion. I just want to let everyone know, including especially Dr. Gregorsky, that my vote tonight about the contract is not about the favorable job that he's doing. I think that Dr. Gregorsky could not have done actually a better job. My vote tonight for or against the motion is going going to be strictly based on the amended compensation that's been proposed. But I don't think that there's anyone who could have done a better job during this last year. And I just want you to know that I really appreciate everything. Thank you, Mrs. Champaign. Any other questions,
comments from the board? Mr. President, because we didn't have an opportunity to have two votes, I would like to tell the dr. Greg or ski my vote for you and the job you're doing is 100% I appreciate you think you're doing an incredible job My vote tonight will reflect the increase to compensation because I believe it should be more closely tied To all other employees in the district
Okay, any other comments Well now proceed to vote all those in favor raise your right hand and say aye All those opposed No. The motion passes 5-2. The next regular board meeting will be held on Monday, January 24, 2022. There being no further business before the board, this meeting is adjourned. The time is 7.55 p.m. Thanks everybody.

About the underlying data (7 notes)
- The transcript on this page was produced automatically by speech recognition. No person has checked it against the recording. It is a way to find a passage, not a quotation.
- No speaker on this recording is identified. The transcript separates one voice from another but does not name them, and every turn therefore reads Unknown speaker.
- The speaker turn timeline is not continuous. There are intervals with no attributed turn, so a gap between two turns is not evidence that nothing was said.
- The district’s video index for this meeting carries no timestamps, so the recording is presented here as a single section rather than divided into agenda items.
- The district publishes this recording as 3 separate files rather than one. The player on this page plays the first file; the later parts are on the district’s own player, linked above. Transcript times run continuously across the whole recording, so a time past the end of the first file will not play here.
- The recording is played here from the district’s own stream. The archive does not hold or serve a copy of the video.
- No speaker on this page is named. The automated attribution available for this recording was derived from names spoken aloud in the transcript, and a surname inside a turn is not evidence of who is speaking. Every speaker is therefore left unresolved.
