Board reduces required meetings of school health team from four to two annually
Summary
The board approved changing policy 6.411 to require the health-school team to meet twice a year instead of four times; staff said law does not specify meeting frequency and two meetings (fall and spring) are sufficient.
The Rutherford County Board of Education approved an amendment to policy 6.411 that reduces the required number of meetings for the district’s health-school team from four annually to two (once in the fall and once in the spring).
Administrators told the board that state law does not set a required number of meetings and that two meetings are sufficient to meet reporting and planning needs. The board moved to approve the change and it passed on a voice vote.
Staff will schedule a fall and spring meeting for the health-school team under the revised policy.
