September 28, 2026 - Discussion Agenda & Adjournment

At the September 28, 2026 LexRich5 Board meeting, staff discussed proposed administrative-rule and board-policy changes to align grading practices with a new state law. The changes clarify which assignments count toward grades and make completion or attempted completion of major assessments a prerequisite for credit or content recovery; staff noted that teachers would need to approve students’ participation. No policy vote was reported in the transcript.

The board also received an estimated timeline for capital and bond construction projects. Staff explained that procurement has multiple phases and varies by delivery method, with board contract approvals occurring before construction begins; no contract awards, vendors, or project dollar amounts were identified. The schedule is subject to change and includes permitting and Office of School Facilities approval. Staff said the Old Dutch Fork Elementary move was estimated for winter break in December 2028, with the new facility opening in January 2029, and discussed a goal of having five middle-school teams operating in the 2027–2028 school year as facilities come online. The board approved a motion to adjourn.
