Votes at a glance: Edina board approves K–12 math curriculum, Achievement & Integration plan and multiple policies

At its April 13 meeting the Edina Public Schools board approved several action items by voice vote, with no recorded roll‑call tallies provided in the minutes excerpt.

Consent agenda: The board approved the consent agenda by voice vote after no items were removed for separate consideration.

K–12 mathematics curriculum: After prior review in a February work session and a March board meeting, the board voted to approve recommended K–12 mathematics materials. Teaching and learning staff said the district plans a phased implementation with elementary initial implementation and a multi‑year rollout; the district intends to split costs for elementary and secondary materials across two years.

Achievement & Integration plan (2027–2029): The board approved the plan required by the Minnesota Department of Education. Dr. Franny Baquer noted the plan contains nine goals aligned to the district strategic plan and explained that many numeric baselines remain draft because the state requires this year’s data to set final baselines; Cornelia Elementary is currently treated as a ‘‘racially identified school’’ for the cycle and goals for that school will be finalized after end‑of‑year data.

Policies: The board approved policies 6.14, 6.21, 6.33, 9.01 and 9.04 after those policies were reviewed at a previous meeting.

Procedure and voting format: The meeting record shows motions and seconds and voice votes; the board did not record individual yes/no votes in the public transcript excerpt provided.

Next steps: Implementation of approved curriculum materials and the Achievement & Integration plan will proceed under the direction of teaching and learning staff, with timeline and budget considerations discussed in follow‑up meetings as needed.
