XII.A. Semi-Annual Review of Executive Session Minutes
Description:
According to Board Policy 2:220, the Board must conduct a semi-annual review of Executive Session Minutes, and also review audio recordings of closed meetings to determine whether:
(1) there continues to be a need for confidentiality, or (2) the recordings no longer require confidential treatment and are available for public inspection. Additionally, after 18 months have passed since being made, the audio recording of a closed meeting is destroyed provided the Board approved its destruction. The Board’s past practice has been to appoint the Secretary to review these minutes in a meeting with the Superintendent and make a recommendation at the following Board meeting. |
