Board approves virtual homebound waiver for immunocompromised student
Summary
Nederland ISD trustees approved a virtual homebound waiver under SAAH 12.3.4 to allow remote instruction for a student who is immunocompromised following a medical procedure; motion passed unanimously.
The Board approved a virtual homebound waiver to provide instruction virtually for a student whose medical procedure leaves them immunocompromised. The waiver was presented by Dr. Steven Beagle and approved under SAAH 12.3.4; Ms. Tonya Mitchell moved the motion and Ms. Kay DeCuir seconded. The motion carried 6-0.
Dr. Beagle explained that the student’s family requested no one enter the home to reduce infection risk and that virtual instruction would allow the district to serve the student during recovery. No additional discussion was recorded.
