Angleton ISD opts out of homeschool UIL participation, approves communication device policy changes
Summary
The board approved an opt-out of homeschool participation in Angleton ISD UIL activities and approved changes to the district’s communication-device policy (removing a $15 noncompliance fee), both actions required or recommended under state guidance.
Angleton ISD trustees voted Aug. 19 to opt the district out of homeschool participation in Angleton ISD University Interscholastic League (UIL) activities and to adopt TASB-recommended revisions to FD and FM local policies. The board’s motion to opt out carried unanimously.
Separately, Mr. Munoz reviewed TASB-recommended changes to local policy FNCE concerning communication devices (cell phones). Trustees approved changes to FNCE and amended the draft to remove a $15 noncompliance fee. The minutes show the communication-device changes are required by state law and that the board approved with that fee removed.
The Student/Parent Handbook changes tied to these policies were discussed as 'Discussion Only' and will return for action at a future meeting.
