Summary

The Carteret County Board of Education approved secondary policy revisions from the School Board Association update packet and staff clarified the credit recovery regulation now awards a grade that is averaged with the student’s previous course grade.

The Carteret County Board of Education approved a set of secondary policy revisions at its Jan. 6 meeting, drawing on the School Board Association's fall 2025 update packet and adjustments to align with state policy, legislation and case law.

Mister Probes presented the revisions and noted there were no changes since the first read. After the board moved and seconded the motion (moved by Mr. Jenkins, seconded by Miss Wheatley), members voted "all in favor" and the policies were adopted.

Staff also highlighted an informational regulation correction involving the credit recovery program: "Previously, you didn't get a grade. Now you do get a grade, but it is averaged with your previous grade from that course," the presenter said, clarifying how credit recovery will affect student transcripts under the revised regulation.

The meeting record does not list the full text of each policy change in the transcript; staff said the packet reflects required changes to stay compliant with state regulations.
