The board voted to place a temporary hold on the high school expansion application, allowing them to maintain their approved status while gathering more information. Diane Freeman explained that they received grant approval but must wait until February to decide on expansion, as they must consult with bondholders and assess their financial and academic readiness. The board agreed to this approach, with Barry noting that they would need parent consensus and a balanced budget before proceeding with any expansion plans.
