Board approves contract and wage-statement changes and adopts naming policy revisions
Summary
The board approved contract and wage-statement language for 2026–27 including anti-discrimination and salary-error notification language, and adopted revisions to policy FF on naming facilities after discussion of criteria and committee process.
The Littleton Elementary School District governing board approved recommended updates to employee contracts and the district wage statement for 2026–27 and completed the second reading of policy FF (naming facilities) with modifications.
Administration summarized key contract changes: authority to place administrators or psychologists on unpaid leave if they lack required certificates or fingerprint clearance cards; a requirement that employees notify the district within 30 days if they discover an alleged salary mistake; and added anti-discrimination language listing sex, race, religion, color, national origin, age and disability (language provided by the district’s legal counsel). Board members asked whether sexual orientation or gender identity could be added in the future; administration said that change was not recommended by legal counsel at this time and would require separate consideration.
On policy FF, administration presented red-line changes to the naming-facilities policy (including language about deceased status and changing 'may' to 'will' in certain places). Board members discussed the subjective nature of "unique contribution" criteria and emphasized community involvement and committee-based rubrics to guide naming decisions. The board approved the second reading of policy FF.
Both the contract/wage statement item and the policy FF second reading passed by motion and voice vote during the meeting.
