Summary

The board approved minutes from prior meetings, the current agenda, consent agendas (including a supplemental consent agenda approved with one abstention) and adopted review-revised changes to nine policies, noting two small edits: an executive session law update and an order-of-business adjustment in policy BEDD.

The Sioux Falls School District 49-5 Board of Education approved routine business items including minutes from Dec. 19 and Dec. 23, the meeting agenda, the consent agenda (items 9a–d) and a supplemental consent agenda. The supplemental consent agenda passed with one abstention by a board member, recorded in the transcript as "with 1 abstention by myself." No roll-call tallies were provided in the transcript for these voice votes.

Brett, speaking on behalf of the policy review committee, presented nine policies and accompanying regulations for review. He said most policies had no substantive changes; two small edits were highlighted: an update to policy BE to reflect a 2022 change in the law governing executive sessions, and a change to policy BEDD to reflect the district's current order of business for meetings. "If you don't have any questions, I'd ask for approval of the policies at this time," Brett said.

The board moved and seconded the review-revised approval of policies A through I, and a voice vote recorded "Aye." The transcript does not provide individual vote tallies or the full text of the policy changes beyond the two items Brett described.

No additional amendments were recorded to the policies during the meeting.
