The Lake Havasu Unified School District held a special session on July 31, 2025, to address key personnel and policy matters. The meeting commenced with a significant recommendation for the position of Human Resources Director. Aaron Horvath was proposed for approval by the governing board, recognized for her extensive 17 years of service within the district. Horvath's career trajectory includes roles from substitute teacher to HR supervisor, showcasing her deep understanding of the district's operations and values. She holds a degree in business administration with a marketing focus from the University of Nevada Las Vegas and is certified by the Arizona Department of Education.

The board unanimously approved Horvath's appointment, with all members expressing their support. Following the vote, she was welcomed to the front of the meeting, marking a new chapter in her leadership within the district.

The meeting then transitioned to the second agenda item concerning student services. Dr. Stone presented the first reading of a proposed procedure regarding wireless communication devices in schools. This policy aligns with Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) 15-128.05, which prohibits students from using cellular phones or other electronic devices during school hours, including meals and recess, unless explicitly permitted by the district.

The session concluded with a clear focus on enhancing district leadership and maintaining a structured approach to student communication policies. Further discussions and potential approvals are anticipated in future meetings as the district continues to refine its operational guidelines.
