Lake Board approves updated policies and 2026–27 student code of conduct
Summary
The Lake Board of Education approved four policy updates on second reading, including changes tied to labor guidance and electronic-device rules, and adopted the 2026–27 student code of conduct after staff and legal review.
The Lake Board of Education on June 11 adopted four board policies on second reading and approved the 2026–27 student code of conduct.
Board members approved policy changes described as driven by recent legislative and regulatory guidance, including an update to policy GCC tied to the Department of Labor and revisions grouped under JJ L and JL that address student-related procedures and a policy on use of cell phones and electronic devices. President James R moved the approvals; the motions carried on 5-0 voice votes.
The board also approved the district’s student code of conduct for the 2026–27 school year, which members said had been vetted by the district attorney and was released for public and staff comment with little feedback. President James R noted the code was approved “as modified during discussion.”
The board did not detail further substantive amendments during the meeting; members indicated the policies reflect legislative-driven changes and that staff-level committees and district counsel participated in drafting revisions. The board did not schedule additional hearings on the adopted items.
Next steps: The approved policies will be incorporated into district governance materials and the adopted code of conduct will apply for the 2026–27 school year.
