Superintendent reports new cell-phone law, curriculum work and a student medical emergency

Summary

Superintendent Roemer told the board the governor signed a law restricting student cell-phone use during instructional time and that the district will align policy language; she also noted K-8 math resource adoption work, a staff response to an anaphylactic emergency, and student and staff recognitions.

Superintendent Roemer provided the board with several updates under the Superintendent's Report. She said, "The Governor signed a bill into law that restricts the use of cell phones during instructional time. We are working to align our current policy language a bit more to the language of the new law." The superintendent also said the district is "working on a new K-8 math resource adoption for the fall" and noted legislative activity to create a plan for math instruction similar to the Act 20 Literacy plan.

Roemer recognized staff who quickly identified a student showing signs of anaphylactic shock and said staff "were able to get the student needed medical attention and manage the situation within the building." She also reported that the NASA Tech Rise team began work on its 2025-26 project, the "Growing Beyond Earth Chamber," and congratulated Shelby Brooks on acceptance to the MWACDA honor choir. The superintendent closed by reminding families to RSVP for a Community Night scheduled for Nov. 18 at 5 p.m.
