Mount Vernon board upholds Dec. 20 expulsion after executive session
Summary
The Mount Vernon Community School Corp. Board of Trustees voted 5-0 to uphold an expulsion determination that had been made Dec. 20, following an executive-session appeal review.
The Mount Vernon Community School Corp. Board of Trustees voted unanimously to uphold a student expulsion determination from Dec. 20 after considering an appeal in executive session earlier the same evening.
Board members considered the expulsion during a closed executive session and then took a public motion to uphold the earlier determination. A board member moved to uphold the expulsion determination; a second was recorded and the board voted 5-0 in favor of upholding the prior decision.
The motion and vote were brief; the board did not provide further public details about the reasons for the expulsion during the open meeting. The board had said the appeal had been handled in executive session, and no additional record was placed in the public meeting packet beyond the motion to affirm the December decision.
The action ends the appeal process that had been brought to the board that night. The board did not announce any additional follow-up steps or public conditions tied to the vote.
