Board approves requested zone transfer for two students after executive session
Summary
Following executive session, the board granted a zone transfer for two students (MSIS #002004503 and #002001837) based on parents' prior reliance on an earlier district policy; the approval does not include a younger child (MSIS #002004530).
The Lamar County Board of Education granted a zone transfer request for two students after meeting in executive session on June 26, 2026.
Board minutes state the parents of MSIS #002004503 and #002001837 asked for transfer approval based on earlier guidance indicating a transfer would be proper when the family moved from Sumrall to Oak Grove. The family said they contracted on a home in Oak Grove while the prior policy allowed the transfer; the board found those circumstances persuasive and approved the transfer for the two MSIS numbers. The younger child (MSIS #002004530) was explicitly excluded from the approval.
The board vote to allow the zone transfer was unanimous. Minutes state no further annual approvals will be required for those two students unless the family's address changes.
