Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
School Districts
(Court opinion corrected 1/12/16.) During a public meeting, School Board voted to terminate employment of its superintendent, who had previously written Board a letter inquiring about terminating his employment contract. He and Board then reached agreement as to terms of separation, and he signed a 19-page Separation Agreement and Release. Board appropriately considered superintendent’s dismissal, and Board members signed Agreement, at closed session month prior to its vote, as permitted by section 2(c)(1) of Open Meetings Act. (HARRIS and APPLETON, concurring.)
