Summary
At its meeting the Lincoln School Committee approved a professional staff hiring policy and a policy on enrollment and services for students experiencing homelessness (second reading), and adopted the 2026–27 district school calendar; motions passed by voice vote.
The Lincoln School Committee voted to approve two policies on second reading and adopted the district school-year calendar for 2026–27 during its meeting.
The chair moved to approve two items on second reading: the professional staff hiring policy and the students experiencing homelessness enrollment-rights and services policy. A committee member seconded the motion; the committee adopted the measures by voice vote ('Aye') and the chair declared the motion carried.
Separately, the committee reviewed and approved the submitted 2026–27 district calendar by voice vote. No roll-call tallies or named votes appear in the transcript; the record shows standard voice motions and confirmations ('All those in favor? Aye. Opposed? Motion carries.').
These approvals advance internal rules governing staff hiring and protections for students experiencing homelessness and set the district’s academic calendar for the coming school year.
