Board approves routine items, adopts homeschool policy revision and votes to enter closed session
Summary
The Rappahannock County School Board passed the agenda, approved October minutes and the consent agenda by voice vote, adopted a policy LBD revision aligning homeschool/religious-exemption practice with state law, and voted to convene a closed session under Virginia Code §2.2-3711(A)(1).
The Rappahannock County School Board took several formal actions during its November meeting, approving routine business and adopting a corrective policy change.

The board also directed staff to bring program-of-studies revisions and transcript guidance back to the program-of-studies committee and to present proposed edits at the February meeting before any formal policy adoption.
