At a glance: Key votes taken by Prince George County School Board on Dec. 9
Summary
Board approved GoTech commitment authorization, the gifted education plan (2022–27), new/returning courses for 2025–26, calendar adjustments for 2024–25 and a 2025–26 calendar preview, appointed a clerk and authorized a Moseley fee proposal for long‑range planning.
The Prince George County School Board recorded several official actions at its Dec. 9 meeting. Summary of votes and outcomes:
• GoTech commitment authorization — Motion to authorize the superintendent to execute a conditional letter of commitment for a GoTech Career Connections lab at JEJ Moore Middle School (motion moved and seconded). Outcome: approved by roll call (recorded unanimous vote). The measure authorizes a conditional, contingent commitment while the grant application proceeds.
• Local plan for the education of the gifted (2022–27) — Board approved proposed edits and refinements to the gifted plan (technical edits, eligibility window adjustments and certifications for gifted resource teachers). Outcome: approved by roll call (unanimous as recorded).
• Program of study/course approvals for 2025–26 — Board approved new and returning courses (world mythology, American folklore, music theory/AP music theory, group fitness, medical administration, business law and AP human geography). Outcome: approved by roll call.
• Calendar adjustments (2024–25) — Adjustments approved: Dec. 20 and Feb. 17 as student/staff holidays; Jan. 13 staff work day; Jan. 14 half‑day professional development/teacher work day and Jan. 15 first day of second semester. Outcome: approved by roll call.
• 2025–26 calendar preview — Board selected Option B to shift spring break to align with regional partners and include Easter Monday; approved by roll call.
• Long‑range planning study scope — Board asked administration to secure a Moseley fee proposal adjusted to repurposing existing buildings rather than building a new elementary school; motion carried and moved to action. The roll‑call record includes at least one abstention noted in the transcript during that item; administration will return for final contract authorization.
• Appointment of board clerk — The board appointed Miss Kirk as board clerk for 2025 by roll call.
Votes were recorded on the transcript via roll call; where roll‑call names and votes were clear the clerk’s record was used. For items requiring future funds or commitments (GoTech, Moseley fee proposal), staff indicated follow‑up reporting and contract review would return to the board when specific funding or agreements are finalized.
