The Faribault Public School District Policy Committee approved forwarding the following policies to the full school board during its June 2 meeting.
Policy 720 (vending machines) — Approved to send to the board with no changes. (Introduced and approved by voice vote.)
Policy 806 (crisis management) — Approved to send to the board as amended (amendment specifies sample procedures are available at the building level); vote recorded as 6–1. A committee member voted no, citing a desire to review pandemic/highly-contagious-illness protocols before fully endorsing the policy.
Policy 908 (capital projects) — Approved to send to the board with no changes. (Voice vote.)
Policy 910 (energy efficiency) — Approved to send to the board; an attempt to remove the phrase “include but not limited to solar and wind energy” failed for lack of a second; vote recorded as 6–1.
Policy 410 (family and medical leave) — Revisions forwarded; noted as a mandatory policy.
Policy 625 -> renumbered to Policy 699 (use and reproduction of copyrighted materials) — Forwarded; only the policy number changed to avoid MSBA numbering conflict.
Policy 721 (procurement) — Forwarded with amendment to restore language referencing the United States Constitution and with clarifying insertions for titles and the state-allowed $175,000 threshold.
Next meeting: The committee recessed for July and set the next meeting for August 4, 2026.
