Board approves five staff development days totaling 2,100 minutes for 2026–27
Summary
Chapel Hill ISD trustees approved a staff development waiver for five non-instructional staff development days (2,100 minutes) on specified dates in 2026–27 to replace student instruction with professional development.
Keith Whitman presented the staff development waiver request for the 2026–2027 school year and outlined the proposed dates and total minutes. "The district is requesting five staff development days, totaling 2,100 minutes, on September 21, 2026; November 2, 2026; January 4, 2027; February 22, 2027; and March 15, 2027," the transcript states.
The board approved the request in a unanimous recorded vote of six yeas and one absent (Martin Ibarra). The motion was made by Hershal Massenburge and seconded by David Acker. The waiver permits the district to count designated minutes as staff development in place of student instructional minutes in accordance with applicable guidance.
The transcript does not include details about professional development content beyond the stated purpose of providing high-quality professional development in place of student instruction.
