Summary of motions and formal votes recorded at the March 4 board meeting, including consent agenda, administrative appointments, curriculum and policy actions.
The Granite School Board took the following formal actions at its March 4, 2025 meeting (motions summarized from meeting minutes and roll-call procedures). Where the transcript did not record a roll-call tally, outcomes are shown as recorded verbally by the chair.
- Consent agenda: Motion made and seconded; board approved the consent agenda (voice vote). No named roll-call votes were recorded in the public transcript.
- Administrative appointments: Motion to accept administrative appointments (including multiple principal and director appointments) was moved, seconded and approved (voice vote). Appointments introduced included Kyle Anderson (advanced learning and personalized learning associate director), Christine Drummond (associate director over literacy), Michelle Kristofferson (online learning director), Carly Chavez (director of educational access and opportunity), Amy Veil (principal, Copper Hills Elementary), Erin Bittner (principal, Farnsworth Elementary), among others introduced and acknowledged in the meeting.
- ELA adoption (6–8): Motion approved to adopt HMH Into Literature for grades 6–8 as recommended (first reading); the board approved the recommendation and directed staff to return with ancillary purchase options and committee feedback for grades 9–12.
- Pre-disaster mitigation plan: Motion approved to adopt the district pre-disaster hazard mitigation plan; staff will submit the plan for state and federal review and proceed with BRIC and other mitigation grant applications.
- School fee schedule (2025–26): Motion approved to accept the maximum fee schedule and publish it for public review as a first reading; staff estimated the law-driven reduction in allowable fees could reduce school-level revenue by roughly $2,000,000 and will bring school-level spend plans for final approval.
- Policies: Several policy readings were approved in first and/or second reading form, including updates to federal award administration policy (Section 14 fiscal policy — first reading), corrective action and progressive discipline policy (first reading), drugs/alcohol/tobacco policy (first reading), prohibition of bullying (first reading), Student Code of Conduct (second and final reading), Vehicle Use Standards (second and final reading), and others as listed on the official agenda.
Votes were recorded as voice votes in the transcript; any later published minutes or roll-call records should be treated as authoritative for exact tallies.
