The Benicia Unified School district board of trustees approved the expulsion of student number 25-034 during closed session, the board announced at the open meeting.

Board officials said the closed-session item concerned "student discipline and other confidential matters, education section 35,146, and 48,915 B2." On the open‑session announcement the board reported the action came "on a motion by Trustee Hirsch and seconded by Trustee Mosselli to approve staff recommendation of expulsion of student number 25Dash034 by the following vote, ayes 3, noes 1, 1 absent." The meeting record did not identify which trustee cast the single no vote.

Because the matter was handled in closed session, the board did not discuss details of the discipline in public. The board recorded the formal motion and tally when it returned to open session.

The board did not provide additional public details about the student, the alleged conduct, or the length or terms of the expulsion during the open meeting. The transcript shows the closed‑session item was announced at the start of the meeting and that the vote to adopt the staff recommendation followed that closed session.
