Board postpones revision of graduation requirements until summer
Summary
The Rutherford County Board of Education postponed discussion and action on policy 4.605 (graduation requirements) to give staff and principals more time to resolve internal issues; the board said the matter is not time sensitive so long as a change is in place before August.
The Rutherford County Board of Education postponed consideration of proposed changes to policy 4.605 on graduation requirements until the summer to allow staff and school principals more time to work through unresolved issues.
Doctor Sullivan recommended postponing the item and said the change was not time sensitive provided the district adopts a final version before August, noting that the policy mainly affects early graduates who may finish in December. A board member moved to postpone and the motion passed on a voice vote.
Board members directed staff to continue internal consultations with principals and return a revised draft at the summer policy meeting.
