November 16, 2017 at 6:00 PM - Board of Education Policy Committee Meeting

Rationale: 

Since our last Policy Committee meeting, we have included all edits from the Board of Education and Administration on both Field Trip Policies and Regulations.   In addition, the Board of Education asked the Administration to develop and include a Parent Code of Conduct for parents and/or chaperones attending the trip.   As stated in my email from last week, we have drafted and included the Parent Code of Conduct on our Field Trip Permission Form.  

 

Rationale:  This is the second reading of Policy, 5312 Dress Code.  This Policy has not been revised since 2005.   The policy has been review by adminstration and we have received parental input.  

Rationale: 

As one of the BOE Goals has been to enhance school and district climate supports diversity, the Confidential Crisis Team is reviewing all district policies which relate to harassment, discrimination, racial slurs and any other form of hate talk.  We started with looking at BOE Policy 5131.9, Aggressive Behavior.  You will note, that there were a number of suggested edits by the committee which can be summarized by: 

• Alignment to practice and 
• Change in definitions to update current definitions of state disciplinary codes.
