The Board of Managers approved a list of continuing contract teaching fields that can be used when conducting a reduction in force (layoffs) among eligible teachers.

What it means for you

This affects HISD teachers on continuing contracts, as it sets which subject areas or fields may be considered when the district decides to reduce its teaching workforce.

Outcome

Adopted as part of the board's consent agenda, not by individual vote: "On motion by board member Rosales, with a second by board member Colón, the board voted to approve the remainder of the items on the agenda by consensus."
