11.C.1. Second Reading of Bylaw #9325- Bylaws of the Board, Meeting Conduct
Speaker(s):
David Marcotte
Rationale:
CABE Update- An issue has arisen with the following language which appears in bylaw #9325: No oral presentation shall include charges or complaints against any employee of the Board of Education, regardless of whether or not the employee is identified in the presentation by name or by another reference which tends to identify an individual. All charges or complaints against employees shall be submitted to the Board of Education under provisions of Board of Education policy. Such language is considered inappropriate if the board through policy or bylaw language has created a public forum for public comments. In such a case, the board cannot restrict an individual’s comments. If, as stated above, a limited public forum is created by limiting comments to specific topics or to agenda items, such language would be permissible. |
|
11.C.2. Second Reading of Policy #1120-Community Relations, Public Participation at Board of Education Meetings.
Speaker(s):
David Marcotte
Rationale:
Same rationale as Bylaw #9325- CABE recommendation.
|
|
11.C.3. Second Reading of Policy/REGULATION #5131.1-Students, Driving and Parking
Speaker(s):
David Marcotte
Rationale:
Regulation to Policy# 5131.1 has not been updated since the new high school was built. Changes to regulations reflect the needed revisions.
