The Regional School District 11 Board of Education on Oct. 21, 2025, gave final approval to three board policies addressing sexual harassment and Title IX. Michael Smardon moved the adoption and Cassidy Martin seconded; the motion passed with one abstention by Stephanie Bayne.
The policies approved are Board Policy 5145.44 and two administrative policies, 4000.1 and 4200.1, listed in the minutes under the heading “Sexual Harassment / Title IX.” The minutes record the procedural vote but do not include the text of the policies, any amendments, or a summary of substantive changes.
Board approval now places the policies on the district’s administrative record; the minutes do not specify an effective date or next administrative steps such as posting or staff training. The board did not record public comment on the item or a roll-call transcript in the minutes.
The board’s action came during routine agenda business and followed standard motion-and-second procedure. The minutes show no further discussion and do not identify any planned follow-up reports to the board regarding implementation.
A copy of the approved policy language, implementation schedule, or notice to the school community was not included in the minutes and therefore is not specified here.
