Board adopts policy revisions, approves clubs and names ASBA delegate
Summary
The Bullhead City board unanimously approved a slate of policy revisions (student device use, personnel discipline and related exhibits), approved two new clubs at Fox Creek and the annual tax-credit list, accepted a club sponsor addendum (with a motion to equalize sponsor stipends for the year), and elected Barb Zarczicki as the ASBA delegate.
At the July 17, 2025 regular meeting, the Bullhead City School District board approved a series of policy readings, extracurricular club approvals and governance items.
On second reading the board adopted multiple policies related to student and personnel matters. The policies recorded in the meeting include JICJ (student use of portable electronic devices at school), GDQD (discipline, suspension and dismissal of support staff members), IJNDB (use of technology resources and instruction), JLF (reporting child abuse), JR (student records), and GDI (support staff probation). Each policy was advanced by motion and approved in roll-call affirmation; the transcript records each vote with all present trustees saying "I." The board also reviewed related exhibits for professional-staff discipline and evaluation for information.
The board approved two new student clubs at Fox Creek — a Pitmasters club (focused on smoking/barbecue techniques) and a technology club — after discussing safety and food-handler considerations. Staff confirmed clubs had constitutions and sponsors and said the pitmasters club does not plan to cook for sale or for the public as its primary activity.
The board accepted the annual list of clubs eligible for state tax-credit donations for the 2025–26 school year and approved a club sponsor addendum. Trustees debated discrepancies in sponsor stipends among schools and, after discussion, moved to set uniform amounts for the coming year while noting the district may reconsider stipend levels in spring depending on budget changes.
For statewide representation, the board elected Barb Zarczicki as its Arizona School Boards Association delegate for the law conference; no alternate was named. The meeting concluded with a unanimous motion to adjourn.
