\"I'm here as a follow-up to last meeting. Two days after I appeared before you, the same thing happened to my grandson. Unmerciful bullying so bad my daughter had to come pick him up from school,\" the resident said. She added that the same students were responsible and that a student had attempted to befriend her grandson's mother on FaceTime.

The speaker said she contacted school officials and that Dr. Holman had told her he had spoken with the vice principal and \"it would be handled,\" but she said the behavior continued. She also reported a threat she described as criminal: \"the same student that stated that she would be going to kill and burn my daughter August 1. Her threat is a class 2 felony terrorism threat.\"

In addition to recounting the incidents, the resident said she plans to keep raising the matter at board meetings until she is satisfied with the school system's response. She said she received a state news bulletin noting a change in law taking effect July 1 that, in her words, \"takes away the license of any student who is found in cyberbullying or bullying for 1 year,\" and that the state provided a form she could use to file complaints against the board and schools involved.

The remarks were delivered during the public-comment portion of the meeting; the transcript does not record any immediate board action or vote in response. The speaker said she had already contacted state officials and that she would \"use my rights as an open county citizen and a citizen of the state of Tennessee.\"","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","06-17-2025 Overton County Board of Education meeting","oneSentenceSummary","A resident returned to the meeting to report continued bullying of her grandson and to say prior interventions had not stopped the behavior.","taxTitle","Overton County, School Districts, Tennessee","taxId",54421,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6522845,"Board approves retirement letter for Angeline Boeshoe",0,771940,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5066869-4570ab603f2e356f16b741ecbcac3e6a&start=771&end=771","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5066869-4570ab603f2e356f16b741ecbcac3e6a/thumbnail_771940.jpg","/articles/6522845/Tennessee/Board-approves-retirement-letter-for-Angeline-Boeshoe","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6522845-b42122e80ac17d2ea6aeae3f98e5d806/orig.mp4?Expires=1771202171&Signature=Moj1hS75~INGt8TrYGXCE6Cfy0HTZaIuaHvKuNsiohv~Dk6jnVnzN-l7YoVmFRB8hekPUtzpMuVNXcB6-h9LVnC2U2lxLB3iuwaLtXe-QSh7jAKqaAmfn6l4Bb1SxTPGr0Y4v~lEGctNYYoBJRGr0kReNRIUcL~RvjjDpcCLl60mRFPGRAO~FMgYxfGDR9FSjDoKizKpWjUmGc7hurTfOLRpYrRHWqSinEUmCgNt8tjOhrkmzUjT3qNqGoGvO1TNBo~ZnTyy0mJptkP9BQpT82PJCTVVVAEELOQbh7a~62iVge7Mu4tPmrczgHmVoZPOtDY7o1F9mHKZqEHLjw9RAw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The board approved the consideration and acceptance of a retirement letter for Angeline Boeshoe.

A staff member explained two distribution scenarios. If the district gave $2,000 plus benefits to teachers and then provided the same amount to full-time classified support staff, \"just if we did all of them, including the support staff, it would be ... The total would be 510,000,\" the staff member said, adding a breakdown of about $432,000 for classified employees and about $78,000 for the non-certified teacher category. The staff member said that figure was \"500,000 more than what the state's given us.\"

Board members noted that about 30 licensed teachers did not meet the 50% direct-contact threshold a grant or program requires; members asked whether those 30 should be included. The transcript records that counties nearby have taken different approaches: some covered only personnel defined by the state allocation, while others covered all full-time certified and support staff as a one-time expenditure.

Because the district's FY26 budgets already had been submitted, staff said an amendment would be necessary to pay the money in FY26 and that the revenue would not be received until FY26. A board member said the board would need to approve a first amendment at the next meeting to enable payment after July 1 when the fiscal year begins.

The transcript records no final vote on which groups to include or a completed amendment; the board asked staff to prepare the amendment and requested guidance on which employees should be included.","Board members and staff discussed whether a state-provided stipend should cover all full-time employees or only certified teachers.

\"When we say 'risk avoidance education,' that's the new way of saying abstinence education,\" Heron said, adding that the program focuses on \"the whole person, healthy relationships, long term relationships, delaying sex until marriage,\" and also covers consent and online safety. She said the clinic uses purchased, evidence-based curricula that can be crosswalked to existing state lifetime-wellness and family-life standards.

Heron said the clinic serves neighboring counties and would like to add Overton County to its service area. She said the high-school curriculum is taught across four class periods (with 45-minute class periods) and that middle-school material is shorter and emphasizes internet safety and social media. She described typical class sizes of 25–30 students and said the provider prefers to teach in regular classrooms during required classes so all students can be reached.

On parental permission, Heron said: \"Absolutely. That's a that's a state requirement. So the way the state law is written, parents have the opportunity to opt out.\" She added that most counties the clinic serves require opt-in and that the clinic uses parent-contact apps such as ParentSquare; students without returned permission slips receive an alternative assignment.

Heron identified Dr. Chris Nam as the clinic's overseeing physician and said the program is offered as a supplemental external presenter at schools, not as a replacement for teacher instruction.

The transcript records questions from board members about grade-level placement, classroom logistics and parental consent, and Heron answered those items. The board did not record a formal vote or directive in the transcript on whether to accept the clinic's services; Heron concluded by offering materials and saying copies of the curricula were available for board review.

No regulatory citation beyond a general reference to a state parental-consent requirement was recorded in the transcript.","Beth Heron of Hootle Pregnancy Clinic described a 'risk avoidance' (abstinence-focused) curriculum she said aligns with state lifetime-wellness standards, explained parental permission requirements and program length, and asked to offer services in Overton County schools; no formal board action is recorded.","actionData","errors"]
