Policy committee forwards Policy 4-08 after adding definition for “immediately”
Summary
The Union County Public Schools policy committee voted to forward Policy 4-08 to the full board after staff added a definition for the term “immediately,” which staff said appears nine times in the policy. The committee approved forwarding the policy by voice vote.
The Union County Public Schools policy committee voted May 19 to forward Policy 4-08 to the full board after staff added a definition for the term “immediately.” Chair opened the meeting and asked the committee to consider the item; Miss Elliott, district staff, presented the change and recommended full-board consideration.
"We have 1 policy for second review today, policy 4-08," Miss Elliott said, and added that "staff has, added a definition for the term immediately." She said the term appears nine times in the policy and the definition was intended to align the district's communicated expectations with staff practice.
After the presentation the committee moved to send the policy to the full board for approval. The committee approved the forwarding motion by voice vote. The presenter had asked that the policy be placed on the full board's agenda for its June 2 meeting; during the motion the chair briefly referenced a different date ("January 2" in the transcript). That discrepancy is noted in committee records and the effective target date for full-board review as stated by staff is June 2.
The committee did not record detailed roll-call votes in the transcript; approval was recorded by voice. The policy will appear on the full board agenda for consideration at the date requested by staff.
The committee's next meeting is scheduled for June 16 via Zoom.
