Board notes changes under Act 103: parents can access instructional materials online or request paper copies for a fee
Summary
Board briefed on implementation steps from Act 103 allowing parents to access online instructional materials and to request printed copies for a small fee; district staff said the materials and procedures will be posted to school websites.
District staff told the board that Act 103 brought changes requiring schools to make instructional materials accessible to parents online. The district said it will provide online access and, when parents request physical copies, will supply paper copies for a small fee at school sites. Staff said the district will update its instructional-materials policy to reflect the change and post instructions on school websites. A staff presenter said providing online access and a paid paper-copy option is intended to comply with the state change while keeping materials available to families who need them in print. No formal board vote on the instructional-materials policy was recorded in the transcript excerpt; staff described the procedural steps the district will take to implement Act 103 requirements and said the change will be reflected in the next policy revision packet.
