SFUSD board unanimously approves five stipulated expulsions, approves consent calendar and retroactive contracts
Summary
The San Francisco Unified School District Board approved five stipulated expulsion agreements and passed the consent calendar — including retroactive contracts — and reported a closed-session authorization to pay a stipulated amount in pending litigation.
President Bogus opened the special meeting and moved the approval of five stipulated expulsion agreements involving high-school students (case numbers cited as 2022-2023-27, -28, -29, -30 and -31). Each motion was seconded and approved by roll-call vote, recorded as seven ayes on each item.
Board members completed a routine roll call before the votes were taken. After the expulsions were approved, President Bogus reported out from closed session that, in one matter of anticipated litigation, the board had given direction to general counsel and by a recorded vote of seven to zero authorized the district to pay up to the stipulated amount in the matter captioned “student e c versus SFUSD.” The specific payout amount was not disclosed in the public report.
The board then considered the consent calendar. President Bogus said the special workshop format limited public comment to agenda items only; the consent calendar (which included retroactive contracts) was moved, seconded and approved by roll call with seven ayes. Student delegates Isabelle Hanson and Kyle Kinoshita were noted on the record.
No member of the board disputed the motions; each of the five expulsion motions and the consent calendar passed unanimously as recorded. The board recessed to closed session after public comment and later adjourned the special meeting at 10:25 p.m.
The board’s public report on closed session contained no further details about the litigation beyond the authority to pay the stipulated amount. The district did not state the dollar amount during the public report.
What happens next: expulsions carried out under the terms disclosed (some with suspended enforcement) and the district will implement any retroactive contracts approved on the consent calendar; the legal matter referenced will proceed under counsel direction and the district’s payment authorization as reported.
