Board approves consent agenda including sex-education materials over one dissent
Summary
The board accepted a consent agenda on Oct. 1 that included sex-education materials; the motion passed with a 6–1 tally after Board Member Kim Chandler voiced concerns about potential conflicts with state board rules and prompted administration to re-review materials.
The Granite School District Board accepted its Oct. 1 consent agenda, which included minutes, purchases, personnel actions, reappointment of Business Administrator Todd Hauber, financial reports, sex-education materials and the Teacher and Student Success Act (TSSA) district framework. Kris Nguyen moved to accept the consent agenda; Karyn Winder seconded and the motion carried with a recorded result of Yea: 6, Nay: 1.
Board member Kim Chandler registered the lone dissent and raised questions about several items on the sex-education materials list, pointing out possible conflicts with state board rules and recent legislation. Superintendent Benjamin Horsley told the board administration will conduct another review in the coming weeks to ensure the materials comply with state requirements.
The minutes list the consent items but do not enumerate the specific sex-education resources included; the board’s public materials and the audio recording are listed on the PMN site for members of the public seeking more detail.
