"The first one is the involving the consequences breaking the drug rules involving alcohol scheduled 5 scheduled 6 marijuana possession and imitation drugs that needs to move from the action item to the information item for the first reading," Dr. Cook said.

Staff also presented a first reading of a revised homeschool policy and characterized the changes as minimal, relating primarily to what the district can and cannot release about homeschool students. The superintendent said no vote was required for that first reading.
