Board approves agenda, consent items and two tuition waivers
Summary
On Aug. 13 the Franklin Board of Education approved the meeting agenda, the consent agenda and two tuition waivers by voice vote; the waivers follow DPI rules and are for nine‑week periods with an option to reapply.
The Franklin Board of Education recorded three routine votes during the Aug. 13 meeting.
A motion to approve the meeting agenda was made by Missus Witkowski and seconded by Doctor Khan; the chair called for a voice vote and the motion carried with members answering "Aye." A motion to approve the consent agenda was moved by Missus Yank and seconded by Missus Larson; that motion also carried by voice vote.
Later in the meeting the board considered two tuition‑waiver requests. District staff noted the board follows an established tuition waiver protocol and that each approved waiver is for a nine‑week period with the ability to apply for a second waiver under DPI rules (potentially up to 18 months total under policy). Doctor Beers moved to approve both waivers; Doctor Khan seconded. The chair called for a voice vote and recorded the motion as carried.
The board did not record roll‑call vote counts in the meeting transcript; all three motions were approved by voice vote with no opposition announced.
