After closed session, Taylor board votes to terminate three employees

The board first moved to terminate the employment of Rhonda Hunchal effective immediately. The motion carried by a recorded vote of 4–2. The motion referenced the superintendent's letter to Hunchal dated March 20, 2024; no additional details were read into the public record at the meeting.

The board then moved to terminate the employment of Victoria King effective immediately, citing the superintendent’s March 20 letter to King. The transcript records that motion as carried; the public roll-call recorded the motion as carried (vote recorded in the transcript as a majority; individual roll-call entries were taken as part of the public record).

A third motion to terminate Michael Savoy’s employment effective immediately also referenced the superintendent’s March 20 letter and carried on the public vote (recorded as carried in open session).
