Votes at a glance: Pembroke School Committee approves meeting minutes and middle-level sports waivers
Summary
The Pembroke School Committee accepted prior meeting minutes and approved MIAA middle-level waivers allowing eighth-graders to play softball and boys lacrosse at the middle-level; the committee adjourned at the end of the session.
The Pembroke School Committee approved several routine motions during the meeting.
The committee voted to accept the meeting minutes of Feb. 25 and March 4 "as presented." The motion was made by Allison and seconded by Katrina; the committee chair announced the vote was unanimous.
The committee also approved two Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) middle-level waivers permitting eighth-grade participation in softball and boys lacrosse so Pembroke can field teams. Katrina moved the waiver motion; David seconded. Committee members discussed safety and prior experience with an eighth-grade waiver for softball, and noted a strong youth lacrosse program in town. The motion carried with unanimous consent; no roll-call tally was provided in the transcript.
At 8:39 p.m., the committee moved to adjourn. The motion to adjourn was approved and the meeting ended.
The transcript records the motions and seconders by name but does not include formal roll-call vote counts for the motions; the chair described both decisions as unanimous.
