Board adopts multiple policy amendments, approves updated purchasing policy
Summary
The Monroe Public Schools Board approved a second reading and adoption of several board‑policies and adopted revised purchasing policy 6320 (effective Dec. 9, 2025) to include services procurement and updated procedures.
The Monroe Public Schools Board on Dec. 9 completed the second reading and approved a package of policy amendments covering bylaws, presiding officer duties, leaves of absence, extracurricular and district‑sponsored trips, staff employment provisions, personal communication devices, immunization and medication policies, student suicide response, personnel files, food services and wellness.
Superintendent Andy Shaw said the policies were posted for community review and that bolded text in the presented packet indicated additions while struck text indicated removals. The board moved to approve the second reading as presented and adopted the listed policies by roll call.
Separately, the board adopted purchasing policy 6320 as a final reading, which adds explicit references to services procurement and new administrative processes. "I move to approve purchasing policy 6320 effective December 9th, 2025 as presented," a board member said; the motion passed on a unanimous roll call.
The new purchasing language will guide how the district solicits and awards contracts for goods and services and will be implemented by the business office and central administration.
