The New Castle Community School Board of Trustees approved final readings of new and updated board policies during its Aug. 11 meeting.
The board voted 5-0 to approve School Board Policy D-325 on final reading after a motion from Jaci Hadsell seconded by Jamey Marcum. The board also approved a set of additional policies identified in the minutes as “Batch #5,” with a 5-0 vote after a motion from Josh Estelle and a second from Jamey Marcum.
The minutes do not include the full text of Policy D-325 or the specific policies in Batch #5, nor do they summarize any debate or staff explanation of the policy changes. The board packet or policy documents would be needed for exact language and implications of the new and revised provisions.
Board members and central office administrators present included Superintendent Matthew Shoemaker and Curriculum Director Sherri Bergum; neither is quoted in the meeting minutes regarding the policy approvals.
The approvals were recorded as final readings and formal board actions in the minutes; no amendments or conditions to the approvals are recorded.
