Cabot School Board approves Wilbur Mills appointment, property sale, E-Rate application and upholds two expulsions
Summary
In a series of unanimous votes the board appointed Michael Byrd to the Wilbur Mills cooperative, approved sale of food-service equipment, authorized the 2025-26 E-Rate applicant resolution, and upheld expulsions for two students as recommended by administration.
The Cabot School Board on April 15 voted unanimously to approve several administrative resolutions and to uphold two disciplinary expulsions.
The board approved a resolution appointing Michael Byrd as the district's representative to the Wilbur Mills Education Service Cooperative Board of Directors for a two-year term ending June 30, 2027. The motion was made by Corey Williams, seconded by James Hertzog and passed 6-0.
The board also approved a resolution to sell specified district property from the food-service department and to remove those items from inventory. That motion was made by Marvin Jones, seconded by James Hertzog and passed 6-0.
The board approved the Resolution for Schools and Libraries Universal Service (E-Rate) for the 2025-2026 school year, authorizing payment of the applicant's share upon approval of funding and receipt of services; motion by Sarah Owen, second by Corey Williams; passed 6-0.
On student discipline, the board upheld the administration's recommendation to expel student 3216 for the remainder of the 2024-2025 school year (motion by James Hertzog, second by Marvin Jones; passed 6-0). The board also upheld the recommendation to expel student 3710 for 365 days with an option for early review (motion by Sarah Owen, second by James Hertzog; passed 6-0). The transcript identifies the students only by case numbers; no other identifying details were recorded.
Each of the above actions was recorded on the meeting record with the motion, the seconder and a 6-0 vote tally. Board minutes indicate the E-Rate authorization is contingent on approval of funding and receipt of services, and the property-sale approval includes removal of items from district inventory.
