In a recent school board meeting, significant discussions centered around a report addressing complaints among board members, particularly involving Director Bassett and Director Holmes. The report, which has been revised following feedback from Director Bassett, clarified a factual error regarding attendance at an upcoming conference. Initially, it was reported that Director Bassett had requested to attend the conference, but she later withdrew her request, leading to a correction that now accurately reflects that only Director Brooks' request was voted on.

Director Bassett also sought the removal of references to the School Board Directors of Color and Indigenous Fellowship from the report. However, the report's author deemed this information relevant to ongoing disputes among board members and chose to retain it. Additionally, Director Bassett requested to be excluded from a summary that criticized board members for contributing to dysfunction within the group. The report's author concluded that the comments applied to her as well, and thus, no changes were made.

The meeting also addressed specific complaints, including one from Director Holmes against Director Bassett. This complaint arose from a meeting held with local police chiefs regarding the reinstatement of school resource officers. Director Holmes recorded the meeting without notifying the other attendees, a practice deemed legal under Minnesota law. However, the report criticized her actions for lacking respect and collaboration, as her notes from the meeting were posted online without prior review by other participants. Despite these concerns, the report found no significant inaccuracies in Holmes' notes and did not support allegations of deliberate misrepresentation.

The discussions highlighted ongoing tensions within the school board and the challenges of maintaining effective communication and collaboration among its members.
