Summary

The Board approved the consent agenda by a 6-0 vote and, after an executive session on student matters, voted twice (6-0 each) to uphold but modify hearing officer findings in two separate ninth-grade appeal hearings for Heights High School students.

The Board of Education voted to approve the consent agenda and then moved into executive session for student matters.

On the consent agenda, a board member moved to approve the items and the motion passed 6-0.

Later, the board reconvened from executive session and announced actions on two appeal hearings concerning ninth-grade students from Heights High School. For an appeal hearing held Oct. 27, 2025, the board "upheld but modified the findings of the hearing officer" by a 6-0 vote. The board took identical action and the same recorded vote on an appeal hearing held Oct. 30, 2025.

The board then adjourned after taking the motions to executive session and returning for public vote.
