June Jericho Board of Education Meeting 6-30-26

The Jericho Board of Education held its final meeting of the 2025-2026 school year on June 30, 2026. The meeting focused primarily on the repeal and adoption of a comprehensive new policy manual, which involved revising and renumbering most existing policies to modernize and streamline governance. Key policy discussions included the reinstatement of the board code of ethics, updates to student device usage policies extending school-issued Apple Neos to ninth graders, and the removal of certain outdated or redundant policies such as those related to the Parent Teacher Association. The board also debated public comment procedures, balancing transparency with meeting efficiency, and considered the role of the superintendent in policy exceptions. The new policy manual was adopted by unanimous vote, effective immediately. No specific procurement, contract awards, or budget allocations were discussed during this meeting.
