Board approves meeting agenda and consent items; votes to expel two students for one year

At the Feb. 25 regular meeting, the Pueblo School District No. 60 Board of Education unanimously approved the meeting agenda and the consent agenda and later voted to expel two students for one calendar year with a 45‑day review period.

Agenda and consent: The board moved and seconded to approve the meeting agenda as presented. Board clerk Ms. Petrone called a roll; the board recorded unanimous approval on the agenda and later recorded a unanimous vote to approve the consent agenda items 2 through 11.

Expulsion of student 158996: Director De Niro moved that the board “expel student 158996 for one calendar year pending review in 45 days as presented in the 02/25/2025 board materials.” The motion was seconded (second not specified in the public record excerpt). The clerk called the roll; the vote recorded: Cisneros — Aye; Dr. De Niro — Aye; Judge Mays — Aye; Mrs. Penencio — Aye; Mr. Tebow — Aye. Outcome: approved.

Expulsion of student 161864: Director De Niro moved that the board “expel student 161864 for one calendar year pending review in 45 days as presented in the 02/25/2025 board materials.” The motion was seconded (second not specified in the public record excerpt). The clerk called the roll; the vote recorded: Cisneros — Aye; Dr. De Niro — Aye; Judge Mays — Aye; Mrs. Penencio — Aye; Mr. Tebow — Aye. Outcome: approved.

Why it matters: Expulsion is a formal disciplinary action that removes students from the district’s schools for a specified period; the board recorded motions and unanimous votes but the public transcript excerpt did not provide incident details beyond the student ID numbers.

What is recorded in the public record: The motions and the recorded roll‑call votes are part of the public minutes. The motions reference board materials provided to directors; details of the cases and any appeal rights are in those confidential materials and are not printed in the public portion of the transcript.
