Summary
The board approved on first reading a time-and-effort policy (33-70) to document federally funded employee time and a new policy (7,200) implementing the SHINE salary supplement for highly needed educators following recent legislative changes.
The Weber School District Board approved two new policies on first reading: Policy 33-70, a time-and-effort policy for employees paid in part by federal funds, and Policy 7,200, which implements the SHINE salary supplement program for highly needed educators.
Heidi Alder introduced Policy 33-70, saying it “puts into policy what we've been doing in practice for several years” and provides procedures for documenting time for employees paid in part with federal funds. The board approved Policy 33-70 on first reading by voice vote.
Alder then presented Policy 7,200, the salary supplement for highly needed educators program (SHINE), noting it replaces the prior TSSP program and that “last legislative session, the state transferred the responsibility of that program to the district to begin implementing this year in the 25-26 school year and changed the name of the program from TSSP to SHINE.” The policy outlines which educator positions are eligible for stipends the district receives from the legislature. The board approved Policy 7,200 on first reading by voice vote.
Board members said the policies will go to the policy committee for further review before final adoption. One board member indicated they had minor comments they would bring to the committee; the transcript notes policy committee review is planned.
