Hardee County board approves update to student code of conduct; fuller discipline matrix due next meeting
Summary
The board approved an updated student code of conduct, noting it is the most extensive revision in years; the board will consider a detailed infractions-and-consequences matrix at the next meeting and the updated code will be posted on the district website.
The Hardee County School Board approved an updated student code of conduct during its meeting, with a motion by Miss Cornell and a second from Dr. Sharp.
Board members and staff said the revision is extensive and overdue; the code has not been updated since the tenure of Mr. Durastani, a former district leader referenced in the discussion. The board heard that further work remains: administrators will return at the next board meeting with an assessor report detailing infractions and recommended consequences and with other discipline actions not yet included in the current draft.
Superintendent (name not specified) confirmed the updated version will be posted on the district website and that the code will continue to be revised as needed. The board voted to approve the updated code in concept and to receive the supplemental discipline matrix and related documents at the next meeting for final approval.
