The Pasco County School Board recorded several formal actions during its meeting, including two student expulsions, approval of the consent agenda and a unanimous vote to deny the City of New Port Richey’s request to delay the Schwetman Education Center closing.
Votes and formal actions recorded on the public record:
- Acceptance of off‑agenda item: The board voted to accept an off‑agenda request from the City of New Port Richey related to the Schwetman Education Center. (Motion: first by Beaudoin; second by Hernandez; outcome: approved.)
- Student expulsion, item 7.1: Staff requested approval to expel a male student, DOB 08/03/2009, from Kirkland Ranch Academy of Innovation. The board approved the expulsion. (Motion: moved/seconded; outcome: approved.)
- Student expulsion, item 7.2: Staff requested approval to expel a male student, DOB 09/03/2014, from West Supper Hills Elementary School (as listed in the staff report). The board approved the expulsion. (Motion: first by Hernandez; second by Wright; outcome: approved.)
- Consent agenda: The board approved the consent agenda and all attached items. (Motion: first by Bodwin; second by Wright; outcome: approved.)
- Action item 16.1, Schwetman Education Center closing: After discussion of the city’s request to move the closing date from 10/22/2025 to 11/20/2025, a proposed motion to move the closing lacked a second. The subsequent motion that the district not extend the closing and proceed with the scheduled Oct. 22 closing was moved by Board Member Harding, seconded by Board Member Wright and carried unanimously.
Board procedural notes: several approvals were taken by voice vote; the transcript records board members saying “Aye” without a roll‑call tally on the record for some items.
