Board adopts expulsion policy after second reading; transcript shows internal policy code inconsistency

Centennial School District 28J Governing Board · May 28, 2025

Summary

After a second reading, the board voted unanimously to adopt the district's expulsion policy; the agenda listed the item as "FGE" while the motion adopted "JGE." Superintendent Owens clarified statutory limits on expanding expulsion grounds.

The board considered a second reading of the district's expulsion policy (appearing on the agenda as FGE). Superintendent James Owens explained that language to broaden grounds for expulsion beyond harm to staff and students is not supported by statute. Director Ronald "Jess" Hardin moved to approve policy JGE as presented; Director William Mohring seconded and the motion passed unanimously (recorded as approved).

The transcript records an internal labeling inconsistency: the agenda entry used the label "FGE - Expulsion," but the motion to adopt referenced "policy JGE." The substantive text as discussed remained focused on the legally permitted scope for expulsion; board members did not record amendments to the proposed language during the session.
