Rumson-Fair Haven board advances first reading of multiple equity and related policies
Summary
The board approved first readings of a set of revised policies and regulations related to equity, affirmative action, equal employment opportunity, complaint procedures and related topics (Policy Nos. 1140, 1523, 1530, 1550, 2260, 2411, 2423, 2431.4, 3211, 5570, 5750, 5841 and associated regulations).
At the April 16 meeting the Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School Board of Education approved the first reading of a package of revised policies and regulations focused on equity and related administrative procedures.
The first-reading bundle included Policy 1140 (Educational Equity Policies/Affirmative Action), Policy 1523 (Comprehensive Equity Plan), Policy 1530 and Reg 1530 (Equal Employment Opportunities and complaint procedure), Policy 1550 (Equal Employment/Anti-Discrimination Practices), Policy 2260 and Reg 2260 (Equity in School and Classroom Practices and complaint procedure), Policy 2411 (Guidance Counseling), Policy 2423 and Reg 2423 (Bilingual Education), Policy 2431.4 and Reg 2431.4 (Prevention and Treatment of Sports-Related Concussions and Head Injuries), Policy 3211 (Code of Ethics), Policy 5570 (Sportsmanship), Policy 5750 (Equitable Educational Opportunity), Policy 5841 (Secret Societies), and the abolishment of Policy 5755 (Equity in Educational Programs and Services). The motion to approve the first reading was moved by Mr. Page and seconded by Mrs. McCabe and approved by roll call.
The minutes do not include the text of the revisions; they record that the first reading was approved without board comment. As a first reading, these items require subsequent procedural steps (typically a second reading or adoption at a future board meeting) before becoming final district policy.
Members of the public and stakeholders seeking the revised policy language should consult the district policy repository or contact the Board Secretary for the full revised texts and the schedule for second reading or adoption.
