This individual will serve temporarily as interim superintendent effective July 1st. As board president, I have reached out to a number of former school sup super superintendent and assistant superintendent to discuss the possibility of them serving us in this capacity. At this time, I would like to move that we appoint Jan Irons Harris, former superintendent of Coleman City

018after the meeting. So, if you'd like to meet her, she will be available. So, thank you for joining us tonight. Now, the the final thing that we need to consider is um a contract or an agreement between the board and Dr. Harris. So, um this is another agreement that was drafted by our board attorney, Taylor Brooks. I included it in your packet. You had a chance to review it. Um, we talked about it in the work session. I'm assuming that we don't have any discussion, but now is the time. If you have any questions, I can answer those. Um, but if not, I would like to entertain a motion now um to approve the agreement between the board and Dr. Harris. So, do I have a motion to >> Yes, Mr. President. I move that

All right. Four zero. Thank you. >> All right. Last thing I have is just a brief superintendent report and and going to be a little different tonight than what I normally say since this is my last meeting with you all unless we do have to have a special call before June 30th and you know that that is a possibility but just you
020know first and foremost I want to thank this board as as well as the board uh because some of you have come on since I've been superintendent right and not only you guys but the board that was here in 2020 when I was appointed um the confidence that that you've placed in me for the last six years and the partnership that we've had to lead this district. I mean, it's just been the greatest honor of my professional career and uh and I appreciate it so much. I mean to spend 24 years in the same district as teacher and administrator and to have the privilege to to be the superintendent and work with some of the same colleagues, you know, throughout that 24 years, watching generations of families and and children, you know, uh grow and
021learn and graduate and go on to become productive citizens. Some of them work for us as teachers. I'm getting old enough now that some of them are administrators. But uh but to see the progress that we've made and just to see the impact that that we've been able to make together. Uh and I emphasize that word together because we have done this together. Not just the people at this board de but the people in this room as well as the supportive community that we have. Uh I think the district is is strengthened by the work that we've done. I think we're well positioned for the future. uh whatever the future looks like for the city of Muscle Schultz and uh you know I I know we like to say that we excel in all areas.
022That's what we want to do. We want to excel in academics. We want to excel in the arts. We want to excel in athletics. We want to excel in career tech. We have great support personnel across this district. And I think we are poised as a district and as a community uh to reach even greater heights than we have the last six years. But, excuse me. Our district is is financially sound. Uh, our schools are strong. We have great people and and you we're only as strong as our people, right? And and I think we're surrounded by great people, not only in the schools, but around the schools that that support us and pray for us each and every day. And and I have felt that and and just am excited to be able to
023pass the torch and and watch the dreams, the dreaming that we've done the last six years. And we've done a lot of it. and we're starting to see the fruits of that labor. We're starting to see that vision really, you know, come into shape and uh and become a reality and I'm excited about it. I'm excited to be able to watch it from a little bit different perspective. Uh glad that my family and I will continue to be a part of this community and and just in a different role. But we are going to be your biggest supporters. We're going to be your biggest cheerleaders. We're just a phone call away. My wife does hope my phone rings less, but we are just a phone call away and we definitely want to be of help
024to to whoever you you all select uh to lead this district and and be continue to be supportive of not only the people in this room but the the boots on the ground, the people in the classrooms, the people in the hallways, the students. But just thank you again for your trust. Thank you for your partnership, your friendship. I wish you all the very best and and the best for Muscle Show City Schools. Um and God bless and I made it through without you. >> Thank you. >> Um that is the conclusion of our agenda. Before we adjourn, I would like to say thank you on behalf of the board. Of course, this is your last meeting. Um Miss Langley got away without having one last meeting. Um but thank you for everything that you've
025done. Um 24 years, last six years. Um from my perspective, you've done a fantastic job. I expect to see great things AASB moving forward. Look forward to working with you in that capacity. So, um the board does have a small gift um that for you and for Miss Langley. We didn't forget to her, but she's not here. >> I don't think you do. >> Thank you very much. I appreciate it. >> You're welcome. Thanks for everything. And with that, we have reached the the end of our agenda tonight. So this meeting is adjourned. Thank you.
