Student representatives highlight volunteer service and ask board to consider policy on threats tied to ICE
Summary
Student representatives reported on recent school events and volunteer service (23,760 meals packed). One student asked the board to adopt a policy to discipline students who make light of ICE threats or publicly support actions that target marginalized communities.
Student representatives reported several school activities and pressed the board on a conduct policy tied to community safety. Torton High Student Representative Rodriguez, as read by Student Representative Orozco, summarized recent student activities including a winter bond concert and success of a Holiday Helping Hands event; Rodriguez requested adoption of a policy similar to a neighboring district’s that would subject students who "make light of ICE threats or publicly supported actions that targeted or harmed marginalized communities" to disciplinary action.
North High Student Representative Orozco reported the start of winter sports, upcoming events including a show‑choir showcase and an ASU Hmong New Year celebration, and also said students and Student Council volunteers packed 23,760 meals to benefit children—an effort the minutes say "will feed 65 kids for an entire year." The board recorded the student reports; the request for the conduct policy will be considered in board policy review and action processes.
