Rationale: 

Members of the Public, 

This is the portion of the board meeting when we invite anyone in attendance to address the board of education. If you would like to speak to the board regarding any of the items on tonight's agenda or a public concern, now is your opportunity to do so.  Please review the orange sheet (found on the visitors' chairs) of paper that contains the guidelines for public participation.  If you wish to speak to the board at this time, please let me know.  "Would anyone like to address the board at this time?"

 

AFTER THE PERSON(S) INDICATE(S) THEY WISH TO SPEAK

1.  Please stand and state your name?

2.  What topic will you be speaking on?

3.  Are there others in the room who wish to speak to the same topic? (If so, ask that they be recognized so that 30 minutes of time for public comment can be apportioned as per the policy-5 minutes per person).

4.  Read to Speaker(s): "Please understand that public comment is your opportunity to speak to the board and present your concerns, thoughts, feelings, ideas, and observations.  Members of the board are happy to hear from members of the public, but the board will not engage in conversation or dialogue with you during public comment.  You'll have approximately 5 minutes to address the board, as we allow 5 minutes per person and a total of 30 minutes for public comment.  You may begin when you are ready?

 

 

 

Rationale:  Meeting Pulse Rules

1.  The owner of the goal simply indicates if their goal is "On Track" or "Off Track."

2.  The owner of goal can provide ONE sentence explaining the status of the goal, if they wish.

3.  If a goal is "Off Track" it will be placed on the board agenda as a discussion items for the next month.

4.  The expectation is that if a goal is "Off Track" the owner will work to get it "On Track" by the following month.

Rationale:  The board is required to hold an annual hearing and review its parental involvement policy (Policy #5018).  After the review they may adopt it in its current form or make changes as needed.  The school district's attorney and the administration are not recommending any changes to the policy.

Rationale:  The school board must review its Title I Parental Policy Annually and provide input from parents during the policy review.   Input from the parents who reviewed the policy and provided input, in conjunction with Mr. Anderson, are attached to this agenda item.

Rationale:  The board is required to annually review its student fees policy (#5045) and the amount collected in student fees during the last school year.  The school district collected $0 in student fees during the 2021-2022 school year.  

Rationale:  The board must review its bullying policy (#5054) annually.  The current copy is attached in addition to the suggested revised copy from the superintendent and the school district's attorney.

Rationale:  The board must review its attendance and excessive absenteeism policy (#5001) annually.  The school district attorney and administration are not recommending any changes to this policy.

Rationale: 

5. Short-Term Absence

School Day:  7:40  -  3:40

Add M.L.K. to the list of paid holidays?

• Individuals will be required to mask and monitor for 5 days upon returning to school/work after testing positive
