Title
APPROVAL TO ADVERTISE CHANGES TO ALL OF THE POLICIES IN CHAPTER 8 OF THE SCHOOL BOARD POLICY LIBRARY
Description
This year the Board agreed to conduct a comprehensive review of all of its policies. That review was focused on ensuring policies remained consistent with statute and gave staff an opportunity to ensure policies and procedures were congruent. The process included both a legal and content review by the Board's counsel and a staff review of policy content. Once these reviews were complete, a team of an Assistant Superintendent and one Board member reviewed all of the changes prior to a noticed Work Session. That team then presented changes to the remainder of the Board in a Work Session. In the case of Chapter 8 policies, that Work Session was conducted on June 5, 2018. All of the policies in Chapter 8 have been vetted through this process and are ready for advertisement.
Recommendation
That the Board approve the advertisement of changes to all of the policies in Chapter 8 of their policy library as presented.
