The St. Charles Community Schools Board of Trustees approved a package of policy updates reviewed by Thrun Law Firm at its Jan. 21 meeting; the motion passed 6-1 with Boardmember Mike Goschka recorded as the lone dissent.
"I move that the Board approve the Thrun policy updates as vetted through Thrun Law Firm," Angie Lewis said when she moved the motion; Marcia Kendall seconded, and the minutes record the vote as 6 in favor and 1 opposed. The minutes list the roll call: Allison Brady, Marcia Kendall, Angie Lewis, Joseph McNaughton, James McPhail and Kevin Ritenburg voted aye; Mike Goschka voted nay.
The minutes do not specify which individual policies were changed in the packet, only that the updates were brought forward after Thrun Law Firm review. The Board discussed superintendent evaluation timing, para wages, and other correspondence earlier in the meeting but took the policy updates as a discrete action item under expenditures and motions.
