The Scott County Board of Education voted through a broad consent agenda on March 26, approving fiscal allocations, staffing changes and several agreements before moving to closed session and approving disciplinary action.
By voice vote the board approved: 2026 graduation dates for Phoenix Horizon Community, Scott County High School and Great Crossing High School; fiscal year 2026-27 Section 6 and Section 7 allocations; creation and abolition of several positions (abolish one assistant principal at Elkhorn Crossing School; create one guidance counselor at Elkhorn Crossing School; abolish a grant-funded community schools district director position; create an assistant director of student services; create a readiness coach position at Great Crossing High School; create 11 temporary summer work positions for maintenance and technology for 2026); approval of a district-wide EBD position at Garth Elementary School; an MOU with JAG Kentucky for 2026-27; an agreement with the University Club of Kentucky; a 2027 capital funds second request; a pledge-of-collateral agreement for FY 2026-27; surplus items and current bills; and receipt of financial statements.
Many items were moved and seconded with no recorded roll-call; the chair called for all in favor and declared the motion carried on a voice vote for each listed item. (See timeline entries for motion segments.)
Later in the meeting the board voted to enter closed session pursuant to KRS 61.810(1)(f) to discuss student-discipline matters. After returning to open session, a board member moved to expel the students discussed in closed session for one calendar year from the date of infraction, with educational services to be determined by the superintendent and a scheduled review of student status within 30 days before the expiration; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
Why it matters: The consent agenda includes staffing and program decisions that shape operations for the coming school year, and the expulsion decision represents a significant disciplinary outcome for the students involved. The transcript records routine approval language and voice votes but does not include roll-call tallies in open session for the approvals.
