Beaumont ISD Board grants bus‑safety remedies in Calvin and Weston grievance
Summary
The board partially reversed a Level II decision and granted remedies for the Calvin and Weston grievance, ordering a bus aide assignment, a district analysis of bus aides, front‑seating for younger students, and retention of investigative video. The motion passed unanimously among present trustees.
The Beaumont ISD Board of Trustees on March 19 voted to partially reverse a prior Level II decision involving a grievance by Mr. Calvin and Ms. Weston and to grant specific remedies. The actions directed by the board were: assign a bus aide to the route for the remainder of the school year; conduct an analysis of bus aides and present a report to the Board; require younger students to sit toward the front of the bus; and ensure retention of all video reviewed during an investigation.
Trustee Joe Evans Jr. moved the motion, which Trustee Tillie Hickman seconded. The motion passed with five votes in favor and Senior Chief Dunn Sr. recorded as absent. The minutes specify the remedies granted and note that “Any remedy not specifically granted is denied.” The motion record lists the vote as Yea: 5, Nay: 0, Absent: 1.
The remedies direct administrative follow‑ups (a staffing/assignment change, an analysis/report, and a records‑retention instruction). The minutes do not specify a deadline or which administrative office will deliver the bus‑aide analysis; they record only that the board directed the administration to provide the report.
