The Board of Education took a series of routine approvals and one policy adoption during its March 6 meeting.

Routine approvals
The board voted to approve the meeting agenda and the regular meeting minutes from Feb. 13, 2025. Several administrative and personnel memoranda were approved by motion, including instructional personnel memorandum 17B (items 1'15) and noninstructional personnel memorandum 17C (items 1'10). The financial memorandum 17D (items 1'9) and special services memorandum 16E (items 1'2) were also approved. Change orders (12F number 1), approval of the 2025'26 instructional calendar and emergency repairs (including boiler/heating pump work at Truman Moon Elementary School) were approved by the board; meeting minutes recorded standard "all in favor" votes for those motions.

Policy action: Title I parent and family engagement
The policy committee recommended revisions to Policy 8260, "Title I Parent and Family Engagement." The board voted to waive the first and second readings and then to adopt the revised policy. The meeting record shows one opposed vote; the board chair announced "Got 1 opposed. 5 1, it passes." The transcript does not name the mover or seconder for the policy motion in the public record.

Why it matters: Policy 8260 governs how the district engages Title I families and implements parent- and family-engagement activities required under federal Title I guidance. The board did not discuss fiscal implications during the adoption vote; staff had indicated revisions were recommended by the policy committee and the superintendent's office prior to the meeting.

Provenance: motions and votes are recorded throughout the meeting during agenda approval, memorandum approvals, calendar and construction approvals, and the policy committee motions near the meeting's end.
