Board approves first reading of NEOLA policy 5411 to comply with Act 20 on promotion and retention
Summary
The board approved the first reading of NEOLA policy 5411 to align district rules with Act 20 regarding promotion or retention of at-risk students.
The Plymouth Joint School District board on May 20 approved the first reading of NEOLA policy 5411, a policy the administration said is intended to bring the district into compliance with Act 20 concerning promotion and retention of at-risk students.
Dina, a staff member, briefly described the policy and connected it to compliance with the state law: "This is the policy, so we're in compliance with Act 20 with the promotion or retention of at risk students." The board asked for comments and proceeded to a first-reading vote.
A motion to approve the first reading was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The transcript records the board responding "yes" when the chair called for the vote; no roll-call votes were taken in the record provided.
Because this action was a first reading, further consideration or a second reading may follow before the policy is final and implemented.
