The Mountain Brook Board of Education on Dec. 15, 2025, tabled two curriculum proposals to allow additional community review. Dr. Missy Brooks, director of curriculum and instruction, presented both the AP Business/Personal Finance Course Curriculum Framework and the MBHS Media Arts Course of Study.

For the AP Business/Personal Finance framework, Dr. Brooks presented the curriculum proposal and Dr. Barlow asked that the item be deferred for community input; Mr. Daniel Odrezin moved to table, Mrs. Anne Schilleci seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
