Summary
During board comments Trustee Brickler asked for a future discussion on district grant acceptance and for staff to examine whether children are being denied enrollment because of incomplete CDC vaccine records, noting exceptions exist and asking staff to report back.
Trustee Brickler requested a separate discussion so the board can review the district's process for accepting grants and to be made aware of any current pursuits or accepted grant awards. Brickler said grants can affect fiscal responsibility and asked for clarity on how the board is notified and involved in grant acceptance.
Separately, Trustee Brickler reported receiving a call about a child turned away on the first day of school for incomplete CDC vaccine documentation and asked staff to explore whether there are options or exceptions that would allow the district to provide education while complying with state requirements. Dr. Meyer and other staff noted that vaccine exceptions do exist and agreed to bring back relevant information.
