The committee reviewed technical and clarifying edits to policy 3240 on nonresident admission and tuition, including pronoun and numbering updates and a clarification that students determined homeless or unaccompanied youth shall not be charged tuition; members agreed to waive the second reading.
The Madison Policy Committee reviewed revisions to policy 3240, "Nonresident admission and tuition fees," primarily composed of technical edits such as pronoun changes and numbering adjustments, Speaker 1 said. The draft explicitly restates that any student determined to be homeless or an unaccompanied youth "in accordance with state and federal law and the board's policy regarding homeless students" shall not be charged tuition.
Speaker 1 pointed to a line addressing a twelfth-grade student who wishes to complete the 12th grade in the district and said that wording had been clarified. Speaker 4 noted the committee removed a specific fee line to make the policy shorter and confirmed that families already in the program are grandfathered under existing documentation.
Speaker 1 recommended waiving the second read, and the committee agreed to waive and to send the revised policy to the board as part of the package of policy updates.
