Discussion:
The Executive Committee of the Marshall County Board of Education, comprised of Chairman of the Board Mike Keny and Director of Schools Jackie Abernathy, spoke by phone Wednesday, March 26, 2014, at approximately 1:00 p.m. to discuss allowing an upcoming visitation/funeral to be held in the Keny Building at MCHS; because the funeral home in charge of the arrangements is a for-profit organization, board permission is required. Board secretary Rhonda Poole and Marshall County High School principal John Bush were also in attendance.
Due to the fact that the visitation/funeral of a former student had been announced on the radio and published in the newspaper, the committee felt it inappropriate to deny the funeral home's request. The funeral home followed procedure by completing a use of facility request and providing a certificate of liability insurance.
An administrative procedure will be developed stating that visitations/funerals will only be permitted if the student is currently enrolled at the school.
