ISD622 board restores prior student nondiscrimination policy (Policy 5.22) after federal court ruling
Summary
The board voted June 25 to adopt a revised Policy 5.22 on student nondiscrimination, reverting to pre‑August 2024 language after a federal court found the most recent regulation invalid.
The School Board of Independent School District No. 622 revised and adopted Policy 5.22 (student nondiscrimination) on June 25, reverting to the version in effect before August 2024.
The assistant superintendent summarized the policy action, saying the board was returning “to the policy 5.22 that we had in place prior to the one that was adopted in this past August 2024, following a decision of a federal court finding the most recent regulation of 2024 to be invalid,” and described the action as restoring the district’s operating practices and procedures to the prior policy and legislative language.
The board adopted the revision by voice vote. The motion to revise Policy 5.22 was moved by Marans and seconded by Yenor and was approved without recorded opposition.
The revised policy and supporting documents had been reviewed at the May 6 work-study session and received a first formal reading at the May 20 business meeting; the June 25 action completed the formal adoption process.
