McComb School District trustees considered an agenda item described as approval of the 2025–26 crisis response plan for all schools during their Aug. 4 special meeting and asked staff about the district’s incident reporting system.

A presenter described the item as a reporting system that “is a reporting system so that we can make reports and that'll make a lot more.” During public board discussion, a trustee asked, “Would that mean that we're putting our kids in a database by, policemen? Like, say, like, if I can stop by a ticket, are we putting children in that database?” The presenter replied, “No, ma'am.”

The discussion in the transcript focuses on whether reported incidents would create a record that law enforcement could access; the presenter denied that the system would be a police-accessible database. The meeting transcript does not record a motion text or vote outcome for the crisis response plan in the excerpt provided. Trustees did not specify how the reporting system would handle data retention, external access or information-sharing policies in the recorded exchange.
