Jason Harris, assistant superintendent of secondary education, presented the 2026–27 high school course catalog and the five-step registration process for students. Harris highlighted pathway enhancements and career- and technical-education additions, including an emergency medical response course and a CNA-certified program that the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry recognizes, allowing 16- and 17-year-old students to receive job training supported by community partners.

Harris explained registration timelines and supports: advisory credit checks, registration video, conference information sessions on Jan. 15, and counselor-led planning. He noted planning to update the catalog more substantially for the 2027–28 cycle as Apollo renovations and learning-design changes are implemented.

A motion to approve the 2026–27 catalog was made and approved by roll call; the motion passed unanimously as recorded in the minutes.

Board members asked clarifying questions about how renovations at Apollo will affect future course offerings; Harris said programming and facility design work are being coordinated now for the post-renovation catalog.
