Board adopts policy updates and approves multiple consent items including a bus lease extension
Summary
Trustees approved policy updates (including changes to suspension procedure language and drug/alcohol/tobacco policy Press Issue 121), waived first readings where appropriate, approved a two‑year activity bus lease extension with Midwest Transit, and carried a consent agenda covering items 1–7.
The board approved a set of policy updates and routine consent items during the meeting.
Policy changes included waiving the first reading and approving the second reading of updated policy 7:200 (suspension procedures), which replaces an "attempted phone call" requirement with a broader "parent contact" that can be made by phone or email. Trustees also waived first reading and approved the second reading for Press Issue 121 (policy 5:50) addressing drug/alcohol, e‑cigarette, tobacco and cannabis prohibitions in the workplace.
Separately, trustees approved a two‑year activity bus lease extension with Midwest Transit and carried the consent agenda (items 1–7) by roll call vote. Board members also reviewed FOIA status updates for several requestors and announced school‑year dates: last day of school on 06/05/2026 and commencement scheduled for 06/06/2026 at 2:30 p.m.
Why it matters: the policy updates tweak procedural language for disciplinary communications and update workplace conduct rules; the bus lease and consent items reflect routine operational approvals needed before summer.
