September 14, 2026 - Action Agenda

At the September 14, 2026, LexRich5 Board meeting, the board approved selected employment items (Exhibit A), denied a hearing on a student grievance under Section 504 (Exhibit C), and approved the second and final reading of paid parental leave (Exhibit E); each motion carried 6–0. The board also considered a first reading of proposed revisions to Policy BEDH on public participation. After discussion about applying the speech guidelines fairly and ensuring speakers can review them, an amendment directing the attorney to add language providing the policy to public speakers was approved 6–0. The transcript does not show the vote on the underlying first-reading motion.

The board discussed bringing the district teacher salary scale into compliance with the state’s newly approved minimum scale. The adjustment covers 56 employees and was estimated to cost about $27,000, including retroactive pay adjustments for three salary cells. A motion to approve the compliant scale was seconded, but the transcript ends before the vote is recorded. No procurement activity was identified.
