001Good evening. I just wanted to make a little statement because Mr. Briegel asked a question so and I thought it might be beneficial to anybody who's looking at the printouts Sometimes Showing a change in a policy is done by just bolded. That's how PSBA gives them to us. They give us a proposed policy and and they don't have any Struck through language at all. It's just bolded However, if I go in and make changes To our current policy. I turn on attract changes and that's when you'll see something stricken Something added and it's highlighted in the color. So however, whatever Policy that is recommended How you will see the changes just depends on what version I started with sometimes it's easier to start with the PNN version because there are so many citation changes that
002You are just going through and taking so long to make sure all the citations are correct and Sometimes I'll start off with our policy because maybe there's so much of it that's unique to our district And that's when you'll see You know the highlighted changes in the different colors So just so that everybody's on the same page Those are the two ways you're gonna see the changes that you know Every attempt is made so you don't have to go through and look at the current policy and compare it to our proposed Policies that which we are immensely grateful. Oh, you're very welcome so we'll start off with the first policy 005 and The reason this was changed for the most part is because there was a Third Circuit decision the statutory law always says that
003a board rate may remove or a board member can be removed if they're Something to the extent of they're not fulfilling their duties as a board member, but there was a Third Circuit decision that said that While board members could be removed for not doing their duty as a board member they cannot be removed without an opportunity for a notice the reason for the removal and due process so even though that there were you know, a few other changes in there relating to Citations and those sorts of things the main change is on page two Reflect that I Did not read it but it the court said that you know school directors have a property interest. Yes Is there any other questions about this change or this policy? Not about that change. I'm assuming the
004notification by mail is statutory and we can't simply be emailed I did not check the references. I didn't think about that till just now I'm sorry. I'm under organization meeting Center of the first page Notice shall be given to all board members by mail. I'm assuming it legally has to be my mail Because typically is it on page one page one Like I said, I probably didn't Yes, that one definitely has to be by mail and that's why the district yeah That's ends it. Yes, the only thing I ever get by mail, right And I think that's too because there are probably new board members that may not be in a loop for Email and communications with the board and they're not on the board yet. Okay Anything else for oh five You have a
005question on page two close to the bottom where the green is What is struck out is the majority of the board? Like how is there a vote is basically my question It says officer the board may only be removed, but it doesn't give us a process Well, because I think the process is statutory and I believe I Don't know whether it's two-thirds or half, but there is a process It just doesn't go through it So miss Anderson, are you then saying that because there is a process described in law it need not be part of our policy, correct? Okay, and it might be in another policy I was gonna say I think it may be another policy because I vaguely remember something about like you missed two consecutive meetings then the board can I think
006that has to be another So I think it might be in a different policy, but I do know that there's a procedure Okay, we can move on to 113.1 discipline of students with disabilities This language was updated based on current Terminologies that are required under the school code and then the legal citations were Updated so really The school safety and security provisions of the school code are now what's referenced Rather than what was before which it was It Was under the Safe Schools Act, so there's no longer a Safe Schools Act Are there any other? comments or questions about the changes Yeah, you mean the copies of the policy yes, okay This one was printed only in black and white so that well Don't show Because that's one that we started with the PNN policy
007so anything that's bolded But that's here. Mm-hmm can't really tell where the links are Because it's not coming up in color That's what I'm saying Everything underlined is a link Okay, I'm just saying this one is exactly the same right and it shows up in blue and this one is in black and white I'm just saying we might want to check it and make sure this one's also we can check how it's posted Jackie purposely only colors the copied things that show color to save the money on the copy Now we can see how it looks online One one quick question on this page for one of the changes the word of addition of the word products after tobacco Does that I think in other policies we define tobacco does that include vaping and all
008those miscellaneous? New items, yes That's why they changed it from tobacco tobacco products because it is defined any other policy. Okay. Thank you policy one thirteen point two behavior support this language was also updated based on The current terminology of this safe schools act. So just so you know with here to The bolded Definitional terms aren't changes in this policy like on page two there are bolded Yeah, they just happen to be bold because they're a defined term. So just another layer of confusion Because it's not under the definition like it's not a defined term they're describing Okay, I see what you mean, okay, so you could You know what I mean, right? She means right here. Yeah Yeah, I think if it's bolded and underlined it's different because the definitions are bolded, but I
009think the section had the section sections are bolded guidelines is Exactly. I think he's it means that what physical restraints comes under guidelines. Yeah, is that a subsection? That would make sense because mechanical restraints and seclusion and referral to law enforcement. Those are also sections under guidelines overall their organizational hierarchy is poor Okay we can move on to policy 202 eligibility of non-resident students there was a change in the act 67 of 1924 that amended the public school code to the extent that you a school district determines a student is Not a resident so they can't enroll or You're disenrolling them because you find they're not a resident they have an opportunity for a hearing also I'm actually very glad to see this update not so much because of that but because the language that's
010stricken is Sufficiently vague to have 25 or 30 loopholes in it. So I like the new wording It's much much tighter. And this is an example of you could see how many highlight high greens There are in the citations I Stuck with our policy first on this one even though there was a lot of changes in citations because this is a I Personal to our district. There's more personal things within this particular policy anybody else we'll move on to policy 217 and This change is required because of the new Statutory requirement that graduates must complete a personal finance course beginning with the class of 2030 Understood it doesn't have to happen till 2030, but are we planning to do it sooner? We already have personal finance classes financial literacy personal finance and econ Okay, so
011instead of adding another requirement at this point We were waiting for the standards to get finalized and starting it with that graduating class Okay, it's always it's always been an option for our students It's now they just have a choice between which one they're going to take. Okay. Thank you Okay policy 234 This one changed the definition of pregnancy away from the federal regulations and use state definitions Because of the rollback of the title 9 federal regulations of 2024 Okay, we'll move on to 236.1 threat assessment This was changed to confirm to new terminology in the school code. I added some of the bold that discussed an individualized management plan Was not a change that was in the PNN But for summary or it wasn't indicated as a change but our policy never had that
012language and dr. Murphy and dr. French and Everybody said that we do have Individualized management plan so we just added that back in again it'll be easier for the next person coming along as Long as our policies mirror one another to the extent that it follows what our practice is I think that's the best procedure because otherwise it gets confusing as to what is a change and why it's not there Why that language wasn't there? There's some reference to a child as On the bottom of page 5 the paragraph begins when assessment Because it's a student's behavior Miss Anderson, I wanted to thank you for what you said the fact that we're trying to make sure our policies are consistent and that They also match our practices because I'm familiar with an institution where that
013doesn't always happen and it is incredibly frustrating We'll move on to 254. I feel like this is going so quick Educational opportunity for military children This policy changed Because of a new section of the public school code if you recall we changed this recently To give military children enrollment opportunities and things like that And now this just applies it to the National Guard or reserves right on the Space Force Okay 805.2 school security personnel It was updated with new requirements if you recall there was a new State requirement that every district must have school security personnel now and so We already have but it was changed to reflect the requirement now and Along with that requirement is just the update that mr. Fisher. Dr. Fisher gives to us about The annual report he will now
014have to report, you know How many security personnel we have and and those sorts of things that are listed on page three? The next policy is eight. Oh, okay. Yeah first paragraph there in green Is it just? mandating one full-time person per School district Yes, that's what the state requirement is 823 is opioid antagonist We are already have the prior version of this was policy 820 and That's when I think the main opioid antagonist that were was being used was the naloxone Naloxone and now this policy is more general. So This policy is pretty much, you know new and if we agree to Approve this policy then we will retire 820 because it's more specific to no luck naloxone, but Everything is the same. So that will be on the agenda for the second read
015after the second read Correct. So once 823 is approved. The next recommendation would be to retire a 20. I don't know either And I would try to go back. I yeah, I don't know either Does anybody know the shelf life of the opioid opioid antagonists we keep on We actually work with the police and they work through the DEA and every we have maltract in a system and They do an inventory each month to make sure they're still you in use They check the AEDs at the same time and then three weeks prior to them expiring. They work with the DA to resubmit them So it's about a year Like 12 to 15 months that they're usually active This is going to be a record 829 This is the one Dr. Murphy that you want
016to retire, correct? We have what do you recall the number of the policy that is a duplicate? 800.1 is also titled electronic records and signatures So if if we approve this on the second read Then we will also retire eight hundred point one and I just Doctor, okay Oh, we want to retire a 29, okay retire and keep 801 Yeah, I'd wait and just have it on For retirement and then everybody could look at compare it to eight hundred point one and You know, I left it up to dr. Murphy when she said there's a duplicate Pick which one you want to keep based on how many? Okay team decision Okay. Oh my gosh That was quick. I Knew that it you know, I knew that it was mostly statutory and it wasn't you know
017anything But you never know. Oh, you never know when but is there any public comment? Okay So the meetings adjourned Okay
