Summary

Nacogdoches ISD will request a 2,100-minute Staff Development waiver from TEA with specified PD dates and submit class-size waivers for one bilingual 4th-grade and three kindergarten classes across three campuses.

Assistant Superintendent Maury Tarvin presented requests to submit two types of waivers to the Texas Education Agency. The first was a Staff Development Minutes waiver requesting 2,100 minutes for the 2024–25 year with professional development dates of Sept. 23, 2024; Nov. 4, 2024; Jan. 7, 2025; Feb. 14, 2025; and April 7, 2025. The second set of waivers seeks class-size exceptions at three campuses: Mike Moses Elementary (one bilingual fourth-grade class), Raguet Elementary (two kindergarten classes) and BQJ (one kindergarten class).

Tarvin presented these items as part of the consent agenda; the minutes list the waiver requests and the specific dates and class counts but do not include TEA responses or approvals in the public record.
