_This article was generated from the official Board of Education meeting minutes dated 2026-03-18._ The Croton-Harmon Board of Education convened a special meeting Wednesday evening that consisted almost entirely of a three-hour executive session to discuss confidential personnel and student matters. Board President Ana Teague called the meeting to order at 6:03 p.m. with five members present [1]. The board quickly approved the meeting agenda with unanimous support from all five members in attendance [2]. Just two minutes after the meeting began, the board voted unanimously to enter executive session at 6:05 p.m. to discuss "the employment of a particular person or persons and an exempt subject(s) involving a confidential student matter regarding a particular student" [3]. The motion to enter executive session was made by Sarah Carrier and seconded by Allison Samuels [4]. During the lengthy closed-door session, there were notable changes in board member attendance. Board Trustee Omar Mayyasi arrived at 6:16 p.m., eleven minutes after the executive session had begun [5]. Later in the evening, board member Sarah Carrier departed the meeting at 8:21 p.m., leaving before the executive session concluded [6]. The executive session lasted over three hours, with the board voting to return to public session at 9:06 p.m [7]. The motion to leave executive session was made by Anamika Bhatnagar and seconded by Allison Samuels, passing with unanimous approval from the five members present at that point [8]. No public actions were taken following the executive session. The board immediately moved to adjourn the meeting at 9:07 p.m., with the motion made by Neal Haber and seconded by Anamika Bhatnagar [9]. The adjournment resolution passed unanimously among the remaining attendees [10]. The meeting minutes, generated by Denise Bisaccia on Thursday, March 19, provide no additional details about the specific personnel or student matters discussed during the executive session, as is typical for confidential board business conducted in closed session. Executive sessions are closed to the public and allow board members to discuss sensitive matters such as personnel issues, legal matters, and confidential student concerns without violating privacy rights or compromising ongoing processes. The extended duration of Wednesday's executive session and the involvement of both personnel and student matters suggests the board was addressing significant issues requiring substantial discussion among members and district administration.
