School Board Reviews Dozens of Policies; Members Ask for Clearer Parental‑consent Language
The Martin County School Board reviewed a slate of policy updates across personnel, student supervision, discipline, and charter school procedures. Several board members — notably Miss Roberts — requested specific language clarifications to ensure policies align with the parents' bill of rights and statutory requirements.

Miss Roberts asked that language requiring administrators to "notify" parents be changed to require parental consent where student evaluations or changes in services are involved. On charter applications, the board discussed linking the July 1 notice deadline to the proposed opening year to avoid impractical same‑year requests. Staff noted that some suggested wording reflected changes in model (Neola) language and committed to bringing corrected or clarified language forward in the next review.

The board took no formal votes on policy adoption at this meeting; staff will prepare revised language for subsequent consideration.
