The non-discrimination policies are being combined. Instead of restating separate policies for certified staff, support staff, and students, we are combining these into one policy.
We are modifying policies 1422, 3122, and 4122. We are rescinding policies 1422.02, 3122.02, 4122.02, 1622, 3362, and 4362. |

IX.d. Thrun Policy Purchase
Description:
This purchase is the first step in transitioning to Thrun policy. Once we have purchased the policy manual, we can begin the work of customizing these policies for our district. The intent is to adopt these policies over the summer and start next school year with new policies, guidelines, forms, and handbooks in place.
|
|
IX.e. PowerSchool Litigation
Description:
In December 2024, PowerSchool experienced a data breach. Nationwide, schools are joining a lawsuit against PowerSchool. It is possible that we will be lumped into a separate class action lawsuit, but that is unknown. If we opt into this litigation, we will not be in the class action lawsuit. It is possible that if there is a financial recovery, it would be higher by joining. Importantly, the litigation is seeking indemnity from PowerSchool for any future litigation against the school by a person impacted by the breach.
