12.A. Hear SECOND READING of Board Policies, JFCH-JGA, EEA, EEA-R.
Recommended Motion(s):
Motion to approve SECOND READING of Board Policies, JFCH-JGA, EEA, EEA-R. This motion, made by {Insert Board Member} and seconded by {Insert Board Member}, {Insert Action Result}.
Rationale:
Policies JFCH-JGA, EEA, EEA-R are in need of revision and will be brought forward for FIRST READING at the next board meeting.
Policy changes include standard updates regarding Superintendent/Designee, State of Federal References, etc. Highlighted proposed changes include policy EEA, EEA-R, EEAB which establishes the districts' prerogative to include bus stops in areas identified as "High Need." The goal of this change is to improve attendance and achievement of students in these areas. Additionally, current policy requires Board approval for any route or bus stop change. Tyler Technologies establishes routes in real time based upon efficiency and student registrations. We propose that the board approve initial routes at the beginning of the year, and provide the Transportation Coordinator with the authority to adjust based on benefits for the district. JFCH includes a reference to Medical Cannabis. JFCH-R expands authority to allow admin to work with parents on initial offenses and introduces the option to reduce suspension by participating in an approved program. JFCK eliminates language no longer appropriate for today's cell phone use expectations. JFCL makes clear that students have the right to schooling while establishing the right of schools to determine placement. JFG Removes "Interrogations" from the Student Search policy as this is addressed through another policy.
