The Louisville Municipal School District board voted to rescind board policy JGAA, the district's "Return to School During COVID-19" policy, after a motion and second carried during the meeting.
Board members said the policy had been adopted during pandemic "panic" and agreed it was appropriate to remove it. "It's been motion second to rescind the COVID policy. All in favor, say aye," a board member identified in the meeting record as Board Chair said; another board member replied, "Aye. Ayes have it. Motion is carried."
The board did not discuss replacement language or a transition plan at the time of the vote. Meeting remarks characterized the policy as having been "slipped in the panic the last couple of years" and said it "should have been rescinded a couple of years ago," but no further amendments or additional guidance were recorded.
The action was presented as a formal motion and approved by voice vote. The meeting record does not specify any dissenting votes or conditions attached to the rescission.
