September 11, 2025 at 12:00 PM - Board Policy Committee meeting

1. Call to order

2. 2025-2026 Policy Committee Working Agreement

3. IKF-Graduation Requirements (Required)
The Oregon Legislature passed HB 4137 (2024) which grants credit towards graduation to students who complete International Baccalaureate programs. The State Board of Education adopted rules for implementation and established responsibilities for entities that offer International Baccalaureate Programs. The update also adds extended diploma information back to the notification requirements.

4. JOA-Directory Information (Required)
The State Board of Education recently made changes to the rules regarding directory information and student permanent records (OAR 581-021-0220). This update reflects these changes. OSBA will be doing a more comprehensive review of policies related to student records and releasing additional updates in the future.

5. GCBDE/GDBDE-Military Leave of Absence-NEW (Optional)
A change in law affecting employees using a military leave of absence has changed leave time from 15 days of absence to “up to 21 work days of absence in any one training year” (ORS 408.290) and adds that such leave shall be in addition to any regular leave for which an employee may be entitled.
As a matter of reviewing GCBDE/GDBDE – Military Leave of Absence, an update to GCBD/GDBD – Sick Leave - Personal Illness and Injury Leave *, has been made in connection with its review; not to update because there was any change in law.
