Coeur d'Alene school board agendas: benefit trust payment schedule, closed student hearing, policy readings
The Coeur d'Alene Public Schools Board of Trustees held three meetings in the past two weeks, according to agendas published by the district. No minutes have been published for any of them, so the supplied records do not establish what was decided, how anyone voted, or any dollar amounts. The agendas show an emergency session on a payment schedule with the Idaho School Benefit Trust, a closed session on a student matter, and a regular meeting covering reading assessment results, policy readings, and September expenditures.
Emergency session on Idaho School Benefit Trust payment schedule
The board scheduled an emergency meeting for Tuesday, September 29, 2026 at 4:30 PM at the District Administrative Center, 1400 N. Northwood Center Court. The agenda called for public comments, then a closed executive session under Idaho Code 74-206(1)(e) for negotiations involving trade or commerce, and a second closed session under Idaho Code 74-206(1)(f) to consult legal counsel about pending or likely litigation. After reconvening in open session, the board "may act on a possible revision of the payment schedule with the Idaho School Benefit Trust." The meeting was not live-streamed or recorded.
The agenda does not describe the current payment schedule, what revision was contemplated, or any amount. Because minutes are not published, whether the board acted is not established by the supplied record.
Closed session on a student hearing
The board scheduled a special meeting for October 1, 2026 at 3:00 PM at the Midtown Center Meeting Room, 1505 N. 5th Street. The meeting was to be held entirely in executive session and closed to the public, with no live-streaming, recording, or public comments accepted. The closed session was cited under Idaho Code 74-206(1)(b), covering evaluation, dismissal, discipline, or complaints involving a public officer, employee, staff member, agent, or public school student. The agenda also listed future meeting dates and adjournment. No outcome has been published.
Regular meeting: assessments, policies, expenditures
The board's regular meeting was scheduled for October 12, 2026 at the Midtown Center Meeting Room. Agenda items included a bid recommendation for Lake City High School tennis court resurfacing; a first reading of Policy 4130 regarding public access to the district website; a second reading of Policy 2200 regarding school year, calendar, and instructional hours; a second reading of Policy 1110 regarding elections; and approval of September 2026 district expenditures. The agenda also listed discussion of fall i-Ready and Amira reading results and a strategic plan update.
A second reading is a step in the policy process; the agenda summary does not state whether any policy was adopted. No dollar figures for the expenditures or the bid recommendation appear in the supplied summary.
