Committee opens first reading of suspension and expulsion due-process policy, cites changed bullying definition
Summary
The committee held a first reading of the district—s suspension and expulsion due-process policy; staff said the only substantive change in the draft ties to the updated state bullying definition and the item will return for further readings.
The Cheshire School District policy committee held a first reading of a draft suspension and expulsion due-process policy and moved the item toward subsequent readings.
At the meeting a presenter said the only change in the suspension-and-expulsion draft is an update required by the state—s revised bullying definition. "The only change here, is because of the change in the bullying definition," the presenter said, and committee members agreed to consider the separate suspension/expulsion draft alongside the school climate policy in upcoming board meetings.
The committee voted to move the suspension-and-expulsion policy to a first reading at the full board; scheduling details will be set with the full board calendar. Staff noted the committee will review regulations and timing in future meetings before final adoption.
