The Madison Local Board of Education voted unanimously to uphold the principal's decision to suspend student Riley Ward for 10 school days following an executive session.
Board member Mr. Moer moved to uphold the principal's decision; a second was recorded and the board proceeded to roll-call voting. Mrs. Melissa Walker, Mrs. Conterman, Mr. Porter, Mr. Moer and Miss Amy Walker each registered the affirmative vote, and the motion passed 5–0.
The vote followed a closed executive session the board said was convened for matters required to be kept confidential by federal law or state statute. Board members did not disclose deliberations from the executive session at the public meeting. The board framed the action as upholding the principal’s prior disciplinary decision, not as a further sanction or change in consequence.
The board moved on to adjournment after completing the vote. There were no additional public details released at the meeting about the incident or the disciplinary finding.
