District overview

Gallatin County Schools

What Gallatin County's approved minutes show from September 2025 through August 2026.

What do the records show?

The board changed curriculum, employee-leave, and attendance policies while adopting its calendar and FY27 budget.

The board governs budgets, staffing, curriculum policy, attendance rules, facilities, and major contracts.

Curriculum limits

The board adopted restrictions on critical-race-theory and sexual-orientation or gender-identity instruction.

Employee leave

Revised policies removed district language offering up to 30 paid paternity-leave days.

Attendance

The board adopted a revised student absences and excuses policy in July.

The minutes record votes but do not attach complete policy text, so the exact operational impact requires reading the district's current policy manual.
