# NHCS Board of Ed. Policy Committee Meeting | Oct. 13 2026

New Hanover County Schools Policy Committee meeting, identified in the title as Oct. 13, 2026 (the metadata timestamp is Oct. 14), reviewed board policy revisions. Members discussed Policy 2127 on board members’ personal social media use, particularly student images, privacy, and the distinction between public events and campaign activity. An amendment clarifying an exception for images covered by the policy passed 2–1, but the committee then voted 3–0 to hold the policy for further discussion and feedback from other board members. The committee also approved sending revisions to student-performance regulation 3400R to the full board, including notifying parents by the report-card date when intervention is needed, and approved a change to Policy 3410 to align grading language with the cited North Carolina administrative code; both measures passed 3–0.

The committee discussed whether guidance or a form would help parents establish school-based organizations under Policy 5010, as well as annual reporting of approved parent organizations and examples of school foundations supporting positions or other activities. No procurement activity was identified: there were no contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or purchasing approvals, and no spending allocation was made. The discussion of parent fundraising and school support positions did not result in a funding decision.
