Summary
The board approved a district traditional calendar (Option 2) and the Davie County Early College calendar after staff and committee presentations; the board also approved the consent agenda covering finance and HR reports.
The Davie County Schools Board of Education on an evening meeting in January approved two school calendars for the coming year and cleared its consent agenda.
Miss Haines told the board a staff survey drew 507 responses and that 370 staffers selected the recommended traditional option (Option 2). Trustee Jeff moved to adopt the traditional calendar and Khan seconded; the board adopted it by voice vote recorded as 6–0. The board separately approved the Davie County High School Early College calendar — which aligns the early college to Davidson-Davie Community College — on a motion by Mr. Hunter and second by Mr. Caldwell; that vote was recorded 7–0.
Earlier in the meeting the board approved a consent agenda covering financial reports and human resources items. Joe moved the consent agenda, Marie seconded, and the motion carried, recorded as 7–0. The board did not take any public comment and adjourned after closing business.
The calendar approvals set instruction start and end windows included with board materials; Miss Haines noted the traditional calendar in the board packet listed an August 24 start and a June 3 end for students in the attached draft and asked the board to adopt the recommended option. The Early College calendar was presented as a recommendation from principal Sam Brown and his staff because the program carries a calendar waiver tied to college coursework.
The board scheduled final adoption of other outstanding items and directed staff to include calendar details in the communications to families.
