Description:
I would first like to formally thank the Board of Education. January is School Board Appreciation Month. Our Board is composed of an amazing group of people who are committed to the success of Lakeshore schools. I would add that not only are they committed to overall excellence for our district... they are committed to the excellence and success of each and every student at Lakeshore.
Being on the School Board is a thankless job. Our Board members stay connected to the members of our community, and they listen and support the work of each and every employee of our district. I cannot think of a more humble, servant-hearted group of individuals. I would like to formally thank each of our Board members. Starting with the most recent member to the board and working backwards. Trustee, Bill Scaletta - Bill was appointed to the Board in November 2021 and will be going up for formal election in November 2022.

Secretary, Rachel Wade - Rachel initially came on the Board in 2018 and is serving a term through 2024. Rachel is the Vice President of Strategy at the United Way of Southwest Michigan. Rachel and her husband, Scott, have two children who both attend Lakeshore Schools. President, Dr. Jason Beckrow - Jason initially came on the Board in 2013 and is serving a term through 2024.

VI.B. Policy Committee
|

Rachel Wade

Description:
The Policy Committee met on January 4, 2022, with Bill Scaletta, Greg Eding, & Rachel Wade in attendance. Scott Allan conferenced in via phone.
The Policy Committee reviewed the NEOLA emergency update regarding the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Emergency Temporary Standard to implement a policy that required employees to be fully vaccinated, or to get tested for COVID on a weekly basis. The committee reviewed the policy, 8450.6, and the associated Administrative Guidelines. Currently, the 6th Circuit Court lifted their Stay on this requirement, however the US Supreme Court has taken on this law. As a governmental agency, and as an organization that has a workforce of over 100 individuals, Lakeshore Schools falls into the category of having to follow this law. If the Supreme Court overturns the law, Lakeshore would not implement the vaccination requirement and associated testing requirements for those not vaccinated. Provided this does not get overturned by the Supreme Court, Lakeshore needs to implement this policy and associated procedures by February 9th, or we could face MIOSHA fines. The Policy Committee also discussed the Return to Learn Plan. With the high number of current COVID cases, and the current status of the local hospital having very high numbers of patients, the thought is to not make any mitigation adjustments and to keep the current Return to Learn plan the same. Superintendent Eding will present his recommendation later in the meeting tonight. |
