Loading...
Summary
At its April 6 meeting the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp board voted to adopt ISBA‑aligned policy 33‑40 to replace policy 64‑62 on child abuse and neglect; the board moved, seconded and carried the motion (vote tally not recorded in the transcript).
At the April 6 meeting of the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corp board of trustees, the board adopted a revised child‑abuse and neglect policy recommended by ISBA.
Mister Cameron, the corporation’s chief of staff, told trustees that action item 6.01 proposed adoption of policy 33‑40 to replace the district’s existing policy 64‑62. Cameron said the recommendation came "in accordance with ISBA legal counsel" and the corporation’s ongoing policy review. "The office of the chief of staff recommends the option of ISBA policy 33‑40, which replaces current policy 64‑62," he said.
A board member moved approval, a second was made, and the chair called for the vote. The transcript records the board response as "Aye," followed by a response when the chair asked “Opposed?” The motion was announced as carried; the transcript does not include a roll‑call tally or named yes/no votes.
Cameron also presented an information update asking the board to retire two older policies tied to past federal guidance: policy 41‑13.02 (school choice language tied to the No Child Left Behind era) and policy 56‑10 (an outdated program evaluation framework). He said neither policy is required under current federal or state law and that the proposed retirements would be returned for formal action at a future meeting.
The board did not record a formal roll‑call tally for the adoption in the transcript. The district will publish the updated policy text with the official minutes and any implementation notes following board office confirmation.
