The Liberty County Board of Education recently approved a new three-year contract, worth $190,000 a year, for Superintendent Dr. Valya Lee. The last page of the contract reads: “This contract was approved by vote of the Liberty County Board of Education at a public meeting duly held on the 22nd day of July, 2014, and has been made a part of the official minutes for that meeting.” However, the official minutes from the July 22 board work session make no mention of a vote to approve a new contract for the superintendent, nor is there any mention of such a vote on the meeting’s agenda.
