Committee debates breathalyzer consent in student-discipline policy and reconciling uniform grievance recommendations
The Lakeland District policy committee reviewed student-discipline language that would include a parental consent form for possible breathalyzer screening at significant events and spent substantial time reviewing a long-pending uniform grievance procedure draft returned with attorney recommendations.

Speaker 1 described past instances in which visiting districts or events conducted breathalyzer checks and said parents had not been made aware: "the parentalizer parent consent form was that at the beginning of the year, parents need to be made aware that their children could be in a situation where they're gonna be breathalyzed, and are they gonna consent to that?" Committee members discussed limits on the district's authority when students attend another district's events and the need to ensure parents receive advance notice if district practice could subject students to screening at away games.

The committee also examined a uniform grievance procedure that had awaited attorney review. Speaker 2 explained that attorney "Megan" returned recommendations in blue and that the superintendent's admin recommendations compile those suggestions alongside additional changes; the committee said the parallel edits made it difficult to track rationale for changes and agreed staff should consolidate attorney comments and admin recommendations into a single clean draft for public review.

Speaker 1 recalled an allegation related to a bus stop near a liquor store at an away contest, saying the perception "was really, really, really bad," and members highlighted why clear parental notice matters. No formal decisions were recorded; the committee asked staff to integrate attorney suggestions and clarify public-facing forms before bringing the items back for review.
