Anahuac ISD board approves two probationary teacher hires after closed session

After reconvening into open session at 11:15 a.m., the Anahuac ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to hire two teachers on probationary contracts for the remainder of the 2025-2026 school year. Trustee Samantha Humphrey moved the hiring motion and Trustee Carlton Carrington seconded; the minutes record the motion: "Move to hire Laura Scully and Mandy Mahon as teachers on a probationary contract for the remainder of the 2025-2026 school year." The vote was recorded as Yea: 7, Nay: 0.

The hiring followed a closed session during which the board considered personnel evaluation under Texas Government Code Section 551.074 and consulted with the board attorney under Section 551.071; the minutes list those statutory citations. The minutes do not state effective start dates, assigned campuses, salary information, or whether the hires replace specific vacancies; those details are not specified and would normally appear in a hiring packet or future personnel report. The meeting adjourned at 11:17 a.m.
