Summary

At its Dec. 16 meeting the Kingston City School District board approved the consent agenda (including donations to Crosby Elementary), recognized new hires and approved multiple policies (policy 2160 adopted with one opposed; policies 4526 and 4526.1 adopted).

The Kingston City School District Board of Education approved its consent agenda and accepted donations to the E.R. Crosby Elementary School library from the Crosby PTO. The board recognized new staff, including Isaac "Ike" Shaw (instructional technology coach and music teacher) and new special-education leaders Brandon Green and Kenneth Foca; Isaac Shaw was noted as receiving tenure.

Policy business included adoption of policy 2160 after a third reading; trustees replaced the word "termination" with "separation" (defined broadly as any separation from the district) and the policy passed on a voice vote with one opposed. Policy 8630 (computer resources and data management) was discussed in relation to administrative regulations for app approval and platform compatibility; it was set for further consideration as a second-reading item. Policies 4526 (computer use and instruction) and 4526.1 (internet safety) were moved and seconded and approved by voice vote; the board agreed to revisit some computer policies periodically given rapid changes in technology.

No dollar amounts for donations or contract values were read into the record during the public session; vote tallies were recorded where noted in the transcript (policy 2160 recorded as passed with one opposed).
