Loading...
Summary
After an executive session on a student discipline matter, the Preston County Board of Education approved an expulsion diversion plan for the student identified in the record as “Student A,” voting 5–0 to adopt the superintendent’s recommendation.
The Preston County Board of Education approved an expulsion diversion plan for a student identified in meeting materials as “Student A” following an executive session and a return to open session. The board entered executive session for an expulsion hearing and later reconvened in public; the chair called for the motion to approve the recommended diversion plan and the board adopted it by a 5–0 voice vote.
The action was described on the agenda as a discussion, information and action item. Board members made the motion and second on the record, and the chair called the vote. No further public discussion or details about the student’s case were given during the open meeting; the board’s record identifies the item as an expulsion/diversion recommendation and not as a final court filing.
The board did not disclose identifying information about the student in the public minutes or in the discussion recorded on the livestream. The next scheduled Preston County Board of Education meeting is May 11, when the board will hold a finance work session and recognize district award winners.
