At its special called meeting the Rockcastle County Board of Education approved multiple routine and facility-related actions and directed staff to withhold recently added parental‑leave language in the employee handbook pending further review.

Key votes and outcomes (motions moved, seconded; board verbally approved each item with no roll-call tallies recorded in the transcript):

- Adopt agenda: motion made and seconded; board approved.

- Operations and actions (package): board approved the operations and actions packet except for a parental-leave change on page 20 of the employee handbook (the KSBA-drafted language that replaced "maternity" with a broader parental-leave reference). Trustees asked KSBA to remove or delay that change so the handbook item could be reviewed and returned at the next meeting.

- Monthly financial report (June): the board approved the monthly financial reports; the finance presenter reported a general-fund cash balance of $3,910,221.26 and a construction balance of $1,619,314.

- KSBA policy update (policy 09.2241): the board completed a second reading and approved the KSBA policy and procedures update listed as policy 09.2241.

- Amended district facility plan and related actions: the board approved the amended district facility plan; trustees also approved submitting the hearing packet to the Kentucky Department of Education and appointed the superintendent as the hearing officer for the public hearing process.

- Rockcastle County School District Finance Corporation actions (related to Delta Natural Gas easement): the finance corporation confirmed officers, approved professional survey exhibits and restricted appraisal reports, approved easement and right-of-way agreements with Delta Natural Gas Company, and approved the BG-1 project application form and the declaration that the easement disposal would not impair educational usefulness. Those items were approved in sequence during the corporation meeting; board members moved and seconded each item and then voted in favor.

Notes on vote records and procedure: the transcript records motions, seconds and verbal assent (“All in favor?”) for the items above but did not capture individual recorded yes/no tallies or identify movers and seconders by name for each motion. The board directed staff to contact KSBA to adjust the parental-leave language and to bring the handbook item back next month for consideration.

Ending: board members recessed for the finance corporation meeting and reconvened to complete the agenda. The board scheduled the next steps for the facility-plan public hearing process with the Kentucky Department of Education.
