The North Pike School District board opened the meeting with prayer, approved routine agenda items and minutes, and approved the FY26 consolidated federal programs budget after staff described conservative 85% budgeting to avoid relying on additional allocations. The board agreed to move the January 2026 meeting to Jan. 8 at 6 p.m., scheduled a facility walkthrough for Nov. 20 at 9 a.m., and discussed options for a June 2026 retreat and a potential five-year strategic-plan review with MSBA participation. The board received a "board merit" recognition for exceeding 100 hours of training and then voted to move into an executive session to consider a student matter; a parent, the student and Principal Collins were to attend.
