The board approved two related administrative items: a set of class‑size waivers required for reporting to the Texas Education Agency and a certification of policy changes to comply with state statutes cited in recent legislation.
Student services staff presented a class‑size waiver chart showing specific classes exceeding allowable limits (example counts cited in the presentation included two first‑grade classes at Hays and one kindergarten at Pullen) and said there are a total of 24 class‑size waivers currently. Trustees approved the waivers as presented.
On a separate action, administration presented revisions to board policies and the employee handbook intended to satisfy Texas Education Code requirements referenced in transcript as 39.008, 11.005 and 28.002 (presentation linked the changes to SB‑12 obligations). The administration recommended board certification of compliance; trustees moved and approved the certification as presented.
