Summary
The Russell County School Board approved minutes, payroll and multiple personnel items, adopted the second reading of policy LBD, and heard a 4‑H agent outline several student programs including Reality Store and STEM activities.
The Russell County School Board moved through routine business Tuesday night, approving minutes, paying bills, and accepting resignations and personnel transfers listed on the agenda. The board approved the Special Education Advisory Committee and adopted the second reading of policy LBD, which staff said limits the release of homeschool information beyond state reporting requirements.
During recognitions the board named Joshua Snead support staff employee of the month and Mariah Slifey (teacher at Lebanon High School) teacher of the month. The superintendent presented financial figures and a maintenance/expenditure report; the transcript records a sales tax figure and ADM number announced in the meeting.
Ashley Clark, the county 4‑H agent, described several school partnership programs — a Reality Store financial simulation for seventh graders, a Kids Marketplace for third graders, STEM monthly activities at Lebanon Middle School, talent shows and an after‑school ag series — and asked the board to ensure access for those programs in every school.
Board members approved the routine items by voice vote and noted the next regular meeting date.
