June Jericho Board of Education Meeting 6-16-26

The Jericho Board of Education held a meeting on June 16, 2026, primarily focused on reviewing and discussing a series of school district policies, particularly those in the 7000 series related to student attendance, placement, graduation requirements, virtual instruction, and student rights. The board deliberated extensively on policy revisions, including attendance policies, graduation ceremony participation, virtual class offerings, and student directory information. Several policies were tabled for further review, and motions were passed to accept the first reading of most 7000 series policies except for a few that required additional work. The board also discussed amendments to policy 3430 (formerly DEI, now "Opportunity for All") to emphasize full and equal access to educational opportunities for all students. No direct procurement, contracting, or budget allocation decisions were made during this meeting, but the policy updates could influence future district operations and vendor engagements related to educational services and programs.
