Lake Norman Charter's board voted to accept a staff recommendation to publicly review the school's grievance policies and to allow a technical amendment so the documents explicitly cover the entire Lake Norman Charter organization.

Board staff member Miss Stein told directors the Department of Public Instruction suggested it is best practice for boards to make student-and-family appeals processes and employee grievance policies publicly available and current.

A board member raised a point that the parent/student appeals paragraph currently did not clearly state the elementary-school process. Miss Stein acknowledged the omission and asked the board to allow staff to amend the language to include all of Lake Norman Charter.

A board member moved the motion (the mover is not clearly identified in the transcript), and a board member identified as Amy seconded. The board approved the motion by voice vote; there were no recorded objections in the meeting transcript.

Miss Stein said the change was reviewed by legal counsel and that she was not recommending substantive changes at this time, only a public review and minor amendment to ensure the policy covers the full organization.
