SFUSD board approves three stipulated expulsions, reports closed-session resignation agreement

The San Francisco Unified School District Board of Education voted unanimously to approve three stipulated student expulsion agreements during its meeting, and reported a closed-session personnel action.

In a closed-session readout presented after the recess, the board said it "by a vote of 7 ayes approved a resignation agreement" in a matter of public-employee discipline. The board later moved in open session to approve three separate stipulated expulsion agreements tied to OAH case numbers and authorized the district to pay the stipulated amounts associated with each settlement.

Each expulsion motion was moved and seconded and passed on roll-call votes that recorded seven 'yes' responses. The motions described the first two agreements as covering the remainder of the current spring 2024 semester and the following fall 2024 semester through Dec. 19, 2024; the third was approved for one calendar year from the date of approval. The board also reported that, on an anticipated litigation matter, it gave direction to the general counsel.

The meeting transcript identifies the expulsion matters by internal case labels referenced during the votes. The readout language for the closed-session personnel matter was presented to the public in the board's standard format and did not include further details about the resignation agreement or the amounts the district is authorized to pay.

The board's actions follow the district's practice of handling student-discipline settlements through stipulated agreements and reporting limited closed-session outcomes in open session. No additional information about the students involved or the specific settlement amounts was disclosed during the public readout.

The board moved next to accept a progress-monitoring report on Guardrail 5 (college and career readiness internships) and to continue its agenda.
