Bibb County board reinstates one student, expels another and approves alternative-school placements

The Bibb County Regular School District board voted on several student-discipline recommendations after an executive session, approving a mix of reinstatement, expulsion and alternative-school placements.

The clerk read the superintendent’s recommendations that “student A may return to Bibb County High School effective 04/15/2026,” that “student B for expulsion through fall 2026 may petition for reenrollment January 2027,” and that two other students be placed in an alternative school through the end of the 2025–26 school year. The board voted on each recommendation; members voiced approval on the record and one member recorded an abstention during the votes.

The board did not publish student names in the public motion, and the action followed an executive session expressly called to discuss student discipline. Board members did not elaborate on the underlying incidents in open session beyond the formal recommendations and the effective dates provided by the superintendent.

The decisions set the following next steps: the student approved for return is expected back at Bibb County High School on April 15, 2026; the expelled student may submit a petition to seek reenrollment beginning January 2027; and the students assigned to alternative school will remain there through the close of the 2025–26 school year. The meeting record does not include further conditions, appeal procedures or additional timelines beyond those recommendations.

The board moved on to routine business after the votes; no additional public discussion of the discipline cases occurred in open session.
