The Tangipahoa Parish School System held a policy meeting on July 25, 2025, to discuss several revisions to existing school policies. The meeting began with a focus on procedural changes, specifically the addition of "or designee" to the principal's reporting responsibilities regarding discipline incidents. This amendment was presented, motioned, and seconded without any discussion, leading to a unanimous vote in favor.

Following this, the board considered revisions to policy GBA, which pertains to contracts and compensation. The proposed changes aimed to align the policy with recent updates to payroll procedures, particularly allowing assistant principals to receive coaching stipends. This motion also passed unanimously after being moved and seconded, again with no discussion.

The meeting then transitioned to a review of policy JCDAA, which addresses student smoking, tobacco, and marijuana use. The discussion on this topic was initiated by Mr. Gico, although further details were not provided in the transcript.

Overall, the meeting progressed smoothly, with all proposed amendments receiving unanimous approval, indicating a collaborative approach among board members. The next steps regarding the discussed policies will likely be communicated in future meetings.
