Board members discussed Senate Bill 11 and the district's options after TASB explained the statute's record‑vote requirement. Trustee (Speaker 1) introduced the item as a mandated resolution that the board must consider on record; TASB said a record vote is required by March 1 and that adopting a resolution would require the administration to draft implementing regulations.

Brooke (TASB) explained the practical choices: if the board votes "yes" on the resolution, the district must adopt local policy and administrative regulations to specify timing and management of the designated period of prayer; if the board votes "no," no additional local policy is needed beyond federal constitutional limits. "If you go yes, then you have to have a policy. If you go no, then no policy," Brooke said.

Trustees asked clarifying questions about classroom management impacts, including whether a daily designated period would create classroom scheduling or supervisory challenges. One trustee said the district already accommodates voluntary student prayer and religious text use and worried a formal policy could add a new administrative layer and require schedules or dedicated time during the school day.

No formal motion or vote occurred during the work study. Trustees were informed the resolution would be placed on the February board meeting agenda for the required record vote; TASB and district staff will provide any additional information trustees request before that meeting.

What happens next: The board will receive a resolution on the February agenda and must record a vote by March 1. If the resolution is adopted, administration will bring implementing regulations for board review and adoption.
