The Tecumseh Public Schools Board of Education convened on July 22, 2025, to discuss a series of policy updates and recommendations. The meeting focused on reviewing existing policies, with the board considering repeals and replacements for several key areas.

The first item on the agenda was Policy 3 3 1 1 8 concerning Title IX harassment. The board discussed the current policy, which lacks additional appeal grounds. The committee recommended a repeal and replacement of the policy, but no further discussion was initiated.

Next, the board addressed Policy 3 1 1 8 dash f dash 1, which involves the designation of a Title IX coordinator. The committee recommended keeping Danielle Adamczak in this role, with no objections raised.

The discussion then moved to Policy 3 1 2 1 regarding public school academy authorization, which the committee recommended not to adopt, as the district does not currently have this policy.

Policy 3 2 0 1 a, which sets a financial capitalization threshold, was also reviewed. The board agreed to designate Kelly Glenn as the business manager and set the threshold at $5,000, with a recommendation to repeal and replace the existing policy.

Further discussions included Policy 3 2 1 2 on post-issuance disclosure compliance, which the committee recommended keeping as is, and Policy 3 3 0 1 on purchasing and procurement, which also saw no recommended changes.

The board continued with Policy 3 3 0 7 regarding construction administration, recommending to maintain the current policy. Policy 3 4 0 7 on asbestos management was similarly recommended to remain unchanged.

The meeting also covered Policy 3 4 0 8, which designates the school as a weapon-free zone, and Policy 4 1 0 5 b on religious workplace accommodations, both of which were recommended to be kept as is.

Policies concerning employee leave, performance evaluations, termination, and non-renewal were also reviewed, with recommendations to repeal and replace existing policies without significant changes.

The board concluded with discussions on student-related policies, including the age of majority, parent involvement in education, and school wellness policies. Notably, the school wellness policy emphasizes that no student will be denied food due to insufficient funds.

Overall, the meeting was characterized by a systematic review of policies, with the board opting to maintain many existing frameworks while addressing necessary updates. The next steps will involve implementing the recommended changes as discussed.
