Trustee Whistler urged administrators to enforce modesty standards for students and staff at district schools, citing examples such as halter tops and other attire he said are inconsistent with the existing policy. Superintendent Tim Logan and building administrators told the board they already address dress-code violations and agreed to meet with school leaders to re-emphasize expectations.

Several trustees balanced enforcement concerns with practical priorities. Trustee Farr noted administrators already juggle many priorities and said enforcement will be calibrated against other operational demands. Trustee Parsons and others said parent and teacher engagement is necessary and recommended that the district ensure consistency across schools rather than unilateral enforcement by individual staff.

The board passed a motion to review policy JFJ (dress and grooming) and asked the superintendent to remind administrators of the district standard.

Among the actions the board approved were revisions to policies on adult education (IKFD) and graduation requirements (IKF) as first readings, and multiple human-resources policies (GCC/GDA/GCD and related policies) as second and final readings. The board also approved updated board meeting procedures (BDD) as a second and final reading to clarify public participation and agenda notice procedures.

Trustees voted unanimously on the listed policies. One proposed change to policy GBB (outside employment) was pulled from the agenda after trustees and staff noted that the version in the board packet did not match the district’s current online policy; trustees asked staff to return the correct, up-to-date policy language for further discussion.

Board members emphasized the need for clarity and consistency: several trustees asked that changes be reviewed by legal counsel and by the district’s insurer (the insurance pool referenced in the packet) where disciplinary or liability issues might be affected. The board asked human-resources staff to supply the current policy text and the proposed revisions at the next meeting for the item that was pulled.","Trustees approved a package of policy changes affecting licensure, attendance, personnel procedures and board meeting rules; one outside-employment policy item was removed from the agenda for further review.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6311061,"Trustees approve six annual objectives for district performance plan and delay growth-measure decision for high school",1993,3647000,5640000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb&start=3647&end=5640","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb/thumbnail_3647000.jpg","/articles/6311061/Nevada/Trustees-approve-six-annual-objectives-for-district-performance-plan-and-delay-growth-measure-decision-for-high-school","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6311061-c2fc34cc7003ec19c478fb772fda0ed6/orig.mp4?Expires=1776424481&Signature=ZramSRb1SlC1yZPJWxOKQvHpOWy5zYfKKSEJfCv5Fnmk4Y32Nrv54JsMLc4NAo8HS2o6lEuhx5UiaZ~m8pBXLT8qFEHIQGAg~U481sMTPVTwxUb5m3hDam5~34L0PCPKY8yMp5~wovo~V1Lsgu4ikM4ao26cmls7gfxraDb8cdjr00nhG0WGvhb1prGxkPtq-FFpO1BtviuXjCxaCW91M5hRIpmwJGDFi09B1y~gg9CnD05nX0gFNfGVZ6hPK2KgFR81-t27ktYh5Cs~8pG6a9upCVP3ToMjMHZ4SO8r-HVQnNlKIrhFe8UKL4j-mXh-y5Ue8ROCTg1cVeQMf3ngvw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lyon County School District Board of Trustees approved six of the seven annual objectives that will form the district performance plan for 2025–26 but deferred action on Objective 1, which addresses student-growth measurement at the secondary level.

Deputy Superintendent Dawn Huckabee told trustees the objectives were developed during a four-hour board workshop and that the plan is due April 15 to the Nevada Department of Education. Trustees asked for clarification about which assessments could provide beginning-of-year and end-of-year growth measures for high school students.

Trustees and staff discussed options in high schools: continuing the NWEA MAP assessments for 9th and 10th grades (which provide repeatable growth measures), using I-Ready in earlier grades (K–8), or relying on the ACT/WorkKeys data for higher grades. Several trustees said MAP provides district-level, teacher-level and student-level growth information during the school year, while others noted that MAP and I-Ready both have strengths and that WorkKeys and ACT are one-time measures that do not support midyear adjustments in the same way.

Deputy Superintendent Huckabee agreed to consult high-school administrators about how they currently use MAP and whether the district can standardize its approach at the secondary level. The board voted to approve objectives 2 through 7 immediately and to hold Objective 1 for final approval after staff returns with information from high-school principals and administrators; trustees also discussed holding a workshop to finalize Objective 1 in time to meet state reporting deadlines.

Board President Hendricks said the postponement was procedural: the district needs reliable, comparable growth data before committing to a district-wide growth measure that includes grades 9–12. The motion to approve objectives 2–7 (leaving Objective 1 pending) passed unanimously.","The board approved six of seven annual objectives used to build the district performance plan and deferred one objective about growth measurement for grades 9–12 so staff can provide more information about high-school assessment usage.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6311065,"Board approves $1.07 million in HVAC upgrades for Silverland Middle and Sutro Elementary",494,1710000,2204000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb&start=1710&end=2204","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb/thumbnail_1710000.jpg","/articles/6311065/Nevada/Board-approves-107-million-in-HVAC-upgrades-for-Silverland-Middle-and-Sutro-Elementary","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6311065-5c18a93df375516147c7b05a8d3d8e94/orig.mp4?Expires=1776424481&Signature=IgD7eFJH8cN1swS5WukqfBo9LaXdQYq-oRZ2mFmCH1B6CMLLR-oWQgVd8DgXYnOAuLeDohPz2kJfx6VGp0DlMhZpwicJJVQOEKW2hIyVSz5wMtBvTMHKO26NLB2EqRYMK2BMMWwgov4EOtgQS0m3~GVK9cshAURq543SyuDERWDb6yAycWUwoz5MydABD~kNlABd9~bTdaAWWlxoTAkmVJR-2eITrIujL3ahJggVEenauXecZ8D1E6zuoS50kQZEnPTZHT2hGCWqIlO9eeF0-pnW5KWLVMD6UbDgr1NUp4F3NC10nbRaOp2QGBOOMibxzneCXpRnM~SO6LbqdbbF5w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lyon County School District Board of Trustees approved two facilities projects: replacement of the cooling tower at Silverland Middle School for $198,983 and replacement of boilers at Sutro Elementary School for $873,827.

Operations staff described both projects as turnkey, procured under GSA schedule contracts to secure pricing and limit inflation risk. Executives said the work is planned to be carried out primarily during the summer, with both projects expected to be completed before the next school year begins so construction will not disrupt classes.

Trustees asked about sequencing and coordination with other planned upgrades; staff said the cooling-tower project follows roof and other priority work identified in the district’s master plan and that project schedules are being coordinated through the master planning contractor. Trustee Peterson moved the contract approvals; Trustee Farr seconded. The board voted unanimously to approve both projects.

The district’s operations team will manage contractor coordination, site safety around construction zones, and weekly updates to the master-planning contractor. Staff told the board they will keep administrators and teachers informed to minimize disruption when crews are on campus.","Trustees approved contracts to replace a cooling tower at Silverland Middle School and boilers at Sutro Elementary School, authorizing about $1.07 million in combined spending and scheduling work for summer completion.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6311071,"School board approves $25,000 amendment to SRO MOU, tables final MOUs for further data",1326,1029000,2355000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb&start=1029&end=2355","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2396869-7556630713f1883e2a7b620b377cc0cb/thumbnail_1029000.jpg","/articles/6311071/Nevada/School-board-approves-25000-amendment-to-SRO-MOU-tables-final-MOUs-for-further-data","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6311071-081a62a210bba39ef702d7350012d00a/orig.mp4?Expires=1776424481&Signature=AhAlAR2sfmg88BQLvH~lwknA--C1~RiHs9HIdiO3aikY7fVYUjzgiPsj2n-pyOpSj-eLsfbxOZHxL2RFZI-PUkX5SdY5oXBNfPT0NB4BmySiyLkbWGy7VzbC93qtnCOsX7EegMz2vpiK4Lsk-qIt5yiC6mLiPtA4VNFyKCTreZXp6ZQv-N0pEkUL6Os6ei094yt4xk5eb9nqObyA00wFEhs4UWvmt-6yonCWbmVVR~Dz3VjeEfHZbWYV-NVW~Le-4bMxAfNMvOsrjhEd~iWRY3DT4~RpzG1VbU3zq~Dsrg7h8u8OHzH~IXIis7cZ0ihw7UH11t2N9mO5FdEMAf30zg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lyon County School District Board of Trustees approved an amendment to its school resource officer memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office that increases district funding for the 2024–25 school year by $25,000 and tabled broader MOU decisions to the next meeting.

Board members and law-enforcement leaders discussed whether to continue separate MOUs with multiple agencies or move to a single countywide agreement. County Sheriff Fred urged the board to consolidate the program under the sheriff’s office, saying a single MOU would be “a much more efficient approach” and would provide consistent coverage across schools. The sheriff also described operational challenges when an SRO covers campuses in more than one community.

Trustees pressed for data before making a long-term commitment. Multiple trustees asked that each enforcement agency present statistics — including calls, truancy interventions and other SRO activities — and that staff provide district-level reports on related measures such as absenteeism. The board directed staff to request those statistics and proposed MOU options so trustees can review them in advance of the next meeting.

The approved amendment authorizes an additional $25,000 to cover sheriff’s office SRO costs through the remainder of the 2024–25 school year. The board also voted to table consideration of the full set of MOUs until the next meeting so trustees can review the requested data and compare alternative MOU structures, including a single-county MOU and separate agreements for Yerington Police Department and the sheriff’s office.

Board President Hendricks summarized the direction: staff will obtain activity statistics from participating agencies, present draft MOU language for both the single-MOU and two-agency options, and return to the board at the next scheduled meeting. Trustees said they expect agencies to provide the requested data in advance so the board and public can review it before any final vote.

The board took the amendment vote during the public meeting after hearing remarks from law-enforcement representatives and public commenters. The motion to approve the $25,000 amendment passed unanimously.","The Lyon County School District Board approved an amendment adding $25,000 to the 2024–25 school resource officer (SRO) memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office and agreed to delay final approval of related MOUs pending additional data and proposals.","actionData","errors"]
