Committee member (S2) then moved to approve the administration committee minutes from March 4, 2026, “with leave for the clerk to correct any formatting, technical, or grammatical errors.” The chair called for a second and announced the approval was unanimous.

Later in the meeting Chair (S1) described a remote participation request submitted by Mister McDaniel due to childcare/personal reasons while located in Springfield, Virginia; after an initial review the chair found the request compliant with the school board’s remote participation resolution and asked members present to vote to confirm. The chair announced that confirmation was unanimous and welcomed McDaniel back to the meeting.
