At its Feb. 9 meeting, the Board of Education received a 7–12 principal report on restorative-practices training, reiterated Guiding Principle IV on community engagement, and reviewed 7–12 enrollment (224) and steps for 2026–27 class placement.
The Board of Education received a 7–12 principal report on Feb. 9, 2026, noting staff participation in Advanced Restorative Practices training in Lincoln from Jan. 28–30 and outlining the district's next steps to apply the approach.
The principal told the board the training offered "a deeper dive into values" and guidance on "putting it all together / next steps," including instruction on pre-conferencing and "adding structure to our Restorative Process." The board also reiterated "Guiding Principle IV: Enhance student, family, and community engagement with learning experiences that are culturally relevant for each student," saying culturally responsive partnerships are central to improving outcomes across the district.
Administrators reported 7–12 enrollment by grade as follows: 7th, 40; 8th, 32; 9th, 41; 10th, 38; 11th, 32; 12th, 41 — a total of 224 students. The board listed a tentative Recognition Day for Feb. 12, 2026.
On scheduling for the 2026–27 school year, the board said class offerings have been set and that in February math, English and science teachers will review student data to determine appropriate core placements. After placements are recommended, staff will collect student course requests and then build schedules in PowerSchool.
Board members did not record a formal vote on these items; the report presented next steps and timelines for staff work.
