Board approves three student expulsions following closed‑session hearings
Summary
After closed‑session consideration, the Santa Rosa City Schools Board voted to expel three students subject to the named cases, voting on the motions in open session by roll call.
The Santa Rosa City Schools Board of Education voted in open session on Feb. 26 to expel three students after actions were taken in closed session. Each expulsion item was moved and seconded and then approved by roll call.
Details and votes: the board moved to expel students identified in cases 202425‑20, 202425‑21 and 202425‑24, each “as recommended” by staff following closed‑session proceedings. Roll call recorded the trustees and clerk voting “aye” on each motion. The board announced the motions passed after the roll calls.
Why it matters: expulsions are formal student discipline outcomes with legal and education rights implications; the board followed its closed‑session procedure to consider student‑specific information and then executed public roll calls to record action.
Process note: the motions recorded during open session followed closed‑session deliberations that the board stated involved student expulsions and personnel matters consistent with the agenda. The board attributed the recommended actions to staff and approved them by roll call in public session.
