8. Next Board Meeting: Regular Monthly Meeting 7:00pm Monday, January 15, 2023
Discussion:
Board member Hansen asked Superintendent Patterson about embargoed data from NDE. Superintendent Patterson noted that under the requirements of NDE rules, he would not be able to discuss embargoed data in open session and that the board would have to enter executive session to discuss the data from NDE. President Nelson asked the board if that is what the board wanted to do, then asked for a motion based on Superintendent Patterson's rationale. It was moved by Hansen and seconded by Donley. President Nelson did a roll call vote to enter executive session at 7:30pm. All board members present said yes. President Nelson declared the board out of executive session at 7:42pm.
