The RPS Board of Education Policy Committee met on October 23, 2026, to review four policies. The committee discussed a kindergarten-entry policy update reflecting the state requirement that, beginning in the 2027–28 school year, children must be five by September 1; the regulation would be removed, and the revised policy is to go to the full board for a first read. Members also supported taking the student-residency attendance policy to the full board for a first read with repeal recommended, and requested state legal guidance for reference. No votes were reported.
