Board approves special-education settlement up to $100,000
What happened
The Board approved a settlement of up to $100,000 for privately incurred educational services and attorney fees in a special-education case.
Why it matters to families
The public payment is a material legal and special-education cost; the record appropriately withholds the student's identity and does not establish broader program fault.
The evidence
The March 9 minutes report a 4-0 closed-session vote, the maximum amount, the covered services and fees, and one trustee's recusal.
