Hillsdale board upholds student-discipline committee recommendation after closed session
Summary
The Hillsdale Community Schools Board met in closed session on April 21 for a student-discipline evaluation and, after returning to open session, voted 7-0 to uphold the discipline committee recommendation; minutes provide no further public details about the case.
The Hillsdale Community Schools Board of Education entered closed session at 6:44 p.m. on April 21 for a student-discipline evaluation after a motion by Trustee Chris Sumnar supported by Kathy Petersen; the roll call vote to enter closed session was unanimous.
The board returned to open session at 7:20 p.m. and moved to uphold the discipline committee recommendation (motion by Patrick Flannery, supported by Dan LaRue). The roll call vote to uphold the recommendation was 7 Ayes, 0 Nays (Nicole Hoffman, Kathy Petersen, Patrick Flannery, Rebecca Portteus, Dan LaRue, Matt Gordon, Chris Sumnar).
The minutes excerpt records the procedural motions, roll call votes and the board's action to affirm the discipline committee decision but does not include identifying information or details about the underlying disciplinary matter. Because the discussion took place in closed session and the public minutes omit particulars, the district's publicly recorded action is limited to the board's vote to uphold the committee's recommendation.
The board subsequently returned to open session and continued with remaining agenda items. No further public action or appeal outcome was recorded in the excerpt.
