- Two-year school calendars (2025–26, 2026–27): Board approved the proposed calendars with an adjustment to restore a missing school day for 2025–26 and with an understanding that one date may adjust for homecoming in 2026–27.
- Policy and procedure items: The board approved emergent policy clarifications presented on first reading, including updated attendance language, vacation/proration language and a clarified dual-enrollment/online course payment policy (policy 2395) and extracurricular eligibility (30-30-1); some items were retained as first-reading items and rotated to later formal adoption as needed.
Votes recorded in the transcript were typically taken by voice and acknowledged by trustees; the transcript did not include a detailed roll-call list for each motion. Where the meeting record named a mover or seconder in the transcript that information was included above; where the transcript did not name individuals the entry lists outcomes as approved per the spoken vote.
