Chair schedules public hearing on amendment to 2026–27 school calendar
Summary
At a May 5, 2026 special meeting, the Chair of the Sioux City Comm School District moved to set a public hearing for May 11, 2026 at 6 p.m. at the Education Service Center to receive public input on an amendment to the 2026–27 school calendar; the motion was made and seconded and the meeting was later adjourned.
The Chair of the Sioux City Comm School District called a special meeting to order on May 5, 2026, and asked for a motion to set a public hearing on an amendment to the 2026–27 school calendar.
According to the meeting record, the Chair asked, "is there a motion to set a public hearing for 05/11/2026, at 6PM, local time, at the Education Service Center, 627 4th Street, Sioux City, Iowa, to receive public input on the amendment to the 2026–27 school calendar." The motion was moved and seconded; the transcript does not record a roll-call or final vote on that specific motion.
The public hearing is scheduled for May 11, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at the Education Service Center, 627 4th Street, Sioux City. The agenda item described in the record concerns an amendment to the district's 2026'27 school calendar; the transcript contains a garbled numeric rendering of the school year (spoken as "20 20 six-twenty 7"), which this article normalizes to "2026'27 school calendar" based on the meeting date and context in the record.
Later in the same special meeting the Chair asked for a motion to adjourn; a motion and second were recorded, the Chair called for the ayes, and the meeting was adjourned. The transcripts show multiple "Aye" responses but do not tie those responses to a named roll-call or provide a numeric tally in the available record.
No board member names are recorded as speaking on the calendar motion in this transcript excerpt, and the persons who moved and seconded the motion are not identified by name in the record. The meeting record does show the Chair naming members during roll call earlier in the meeting (for example, "Mister Emke" and "Doctor Hansen"), but individual respondent turns are not labeled as separate speakers in the transcript provided here.
Next steps: the motion to set the public hearing was moved and seconded; the transcript does not show a recorded final vote on that motion. The public hearing on May 11 will be the formal opportunity for public input on any proposed amendment to the 2026'27 school calendar.
