Approvals were by voice vote; full texts and final adoption dates were not specified in the meeting record.
The Bevel City Schools Board approved nine policies on first reading during its December meeting, moving a set of administrative and student‑support rules to the next stage of review.
Miss Williams, the board's CFO, read each motion and the board recorded motions, seconds and voice votes for the following items on first reading: policy 1.102 (student board measures); policy 1.407 (records distribution); policy 3.202 (emergency preparedness plan); policy 3.204 (assessment team); policy 4.1 (structural program); policy 4.301 (Scholastic Analytics); policy 4.406 (use of the Internet); policy 0.701 (substitute teachers, transcription label); and policy 6.4081 (noted in the transcript as related to student relocation). At the conclusion of the sequence, the presiding officer said the board had "approved 9 policies for approval on first grade" (transcript language).
The motions were introduced and seconded in sequence and disposed by voice vote; the transcript records members responding "Aye" to the roll of approvals but does not provide a roll‑call tally or record individual votes. The board did not publish final adoption dates or any amendments during the meeting; each policy was recorded as approved on the first reading only.
Board materials accompanying the meeting (emailed earlier the same day) were referenced for the policies but the meeting transcript does not include full policy text or the enacted changes under consideration. The board did not identify any dissenting speakers on the motions during the recorded discussion.
Next steps: Because these were first‑reading approvals, standard procedure calls for a subsequent meeting or public comment period before final adoption; the board did not specify timing for final votes during the meeting.
Note: Several policy identifiers in the transcript are unclearly transcribed (for example "tied 0.701" and "6.4081"). The board's official policy manual should be consulted for authoritative policy numbers and current drafts.
