Ashwaubenon board approves bylaw and policy updates; open-enrollment revisions moved to January second read
Summary
The board approved second-read bylaw and policy updates and heard a first read on open-enrollment language intended to align policy 5112 with state law; no substantive changes were recommended at this meeting.
Board President Jennie Vyskocil presented proposed bylaw and policy updates and referenced Neola'provided explanation for policy 8420 during the meeting's second read. Michelle Garrigan expressed concern that her issue related more to the statutory wording than the policy language itself. After discussion, the board approved the bylaw and policy updates on a 5-0 vote.
On a separate item, Superintendent Andy Bake presented proposed language affecting open enrollment (policy 5112) during a first read. School Choice Advisory Representative Matthew Rotter asked whether added age-verification language was prompted by parental inquiries; Bake said the change is intended to bring the policy into consistency with state law. No additional changes were recommended at this meeting; the open-enrollment policies will return for a second read and final approval in January.
The board also approved routine consent items including November meeting minutes, the schedule of checks from Nov. 5 to Dec. 3, staffing actions, approval of 35 co-curriculars, donations toward turf replacement for Goelz Field and the audit report.
