Summary

Board reviewed and approved proposed cohort dates for the MMBA online program after staff explained the rationale for the schedule and recommended removing a March start to improve student completion rates.

The board reviewed recommended cohort dates for the MMBA online program and approved the schedule for the coming year. Staff explained the recommendation to avoid a March cohort because students who start late in the year have lower completion rates, and principals supported the change.

A board member moved to approve the MMBA cohort dates; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote. Staff said the approved dates align with past practices overall and will be shared with principals and families.

The board asked staff to continue monitoring completion outcomes and to return data if the schedule needs future adjustment.
