5.A. EBC Emergency Plan and First Aid - NEW
EBCA Safety Threats - NEW EBCB Emergency Procedure Drills and Instruction - REVISED EBC/EBCA (old) Emergency Procedures and Disaster Plans - DELETE
Presenter:
Superintendent Joseph Hattrick
Description:
OSBA has recommended deleting the existing policy EBC/EBCA and replacing it with the three policies listed, two of which are new. These are in response to House Bill 3584 passed in 2023. This bill outlined new requirements for community notifications regarding safety threats that were "not a drill" to ensure that parents, guardians, and employees receive timely information.

5.B. JBA/GBN - Sexual Harassment - REVISED
Presenter:
Superintendent Joseph Hattrick
Description:
These policies are double-coded to be listed in both the Students (JBA) section and the Personnel (GBN) section of the policy manual. They respond to House Bill 2280 (2023 session) that modified the definition of sexual harassment affecting schools. The new policy both changes the meaning of assault within this context and describes the meaning of "without consent" with a new definition.
These revisions also update the official administrators who act as coordinators for complaints of sexual harassment.

Description:
This policy revision, also double-coded for Students (JHFE) and Personnel (GBNAB), reflects Senate Bill 231 (2023) passed to align state law with the DHS process for receiving child abuse reporting through a centralized child abuse reporting system established by DHS.
