Region 09 board adopts updated high‑school graduation policy
Summary
After a second reading with no further discussion, the Region 09 Board of Education unanimously adopted revised high‑school graduation requirements, effective immediately; board said updates reflect statutory requirements and the curriculum committee's work.
The Regional School District 09 Board of Education voted unanimously to adopt an updated high‑school graduation policy after a second reading, saying the revised policy aligns district requirements with statutory expectations.
During the meeting the board chair read the motion: "The Region 9 Board of Education adopt the new policy for high school graduation requirements, effective immediately." The motion was seconded, opened for brief comment and then approved on a voice vote with unanimous support.
Board members noted the update reflects work from the curriculum and policy committees and that future versions will be adjusted as state guidance evolves; one board member asked whether the section for the class of 2026 would be moved automatically or require further revision. The board indicated that subsequent statute changes or cohort‑specific items would be addressed in future policy updates.
The board did not provide a roll‑call tally in the public record at this meeting; the clerk recorded the motion, second and a unanimous voice vote.
