Board approves Division 22 report but schedules Family Academy curriculum review
Summary
The Port Orford-Langlois School Board approved its Division 22 standards report while identifying a compliance exception: the Family Academy’s instructional materials have not yet been board-approved. The district will present curricula for board approval at the November meeting.
The Port Orford-Langlois School Board on Oct. 20 approved its annual Division 22 standards report with one scheduled correction related to the district’s Family Academy. Superintendent Aaron Miller told the board that, while the district meets required standards for minutes, diplomas and graduation reporting, “the Family Academy curriculum has not been approved by the board,” creating an exception under ORS 581-022-2355.
Board members voted to accept the Division 22 report now with the understanding that the Family Academy’s instructional materials will be submitted for explicit board review and approval in November. Judy Miles moved and Carol Hacherl seconded the motion; Korinn Hockett, Carol Hacherl, Judy Miles, Angel Ashdown and Bob Brown voted in favor. Miller said he will provide as much curriculum information as possible ahead of the November meeting, likely via website links.
The item matters because Division 22 compliance is a condition of the district’s standing with Oregon Department of Education reporting; the board instructed administration to bring specific curriculum documents to the next meeting so the district can correct the cited section of ORS 581-022-2355. No formal penalty or enforcement action was recorded in the minutes; the board’s action was procedural approval contingent on the planned November correction.
