Board to move Title IX cross‑references and minor policy edits to consent
Summary
Staff presented three policies for first read and several policies for second read that primarily add Title IX cross‑references, update social media references (Twitter→X) and amend personnel file cross‑references; board moved the items to the consent agenda.
District policy staff presented a set of policy changes for board review and asked that routine updates be placed on the consent agenda. Dr. Sandy Ward said there were three policies on first read in August that add Title IX references and update cross‑references, including governing principle 1700 (removal of barriers). "These policies kind of follow and track from last month," Ward said, explaining the changes are mainly cross‑references to Title IX and the district's anti‑bullying policies. Staff also described second‑reading policy updates that will take effect when adopted next week. Among the edits: policy 7,335 (employee use of social media) was updated to replace references to Twitter with X, and personnel files policy was updated to add Title IX and bullying cross‑references. Board members asked how the public can find policies online. Ward explained: "Once we go, when you go to the CCS website and you go to Board of Education policy manuals, what you can do there is you can either type in something that you're interested in ... Once you type that in, the policies will pop up." A link to the policy manual is also available from BoardDocs and the board agenda. Ending: The board agreed to add the first‑ and second‑reading policies to the consent agenda for consideration at next week's meeting.
