Board adopts Title IX/contact-info update; members debate effect of court injunction
Summary
The board approved changes to policy 2266 (nondiscrimination/Title IX contact information) while members warned an injunction limits which policy language applies; discussion focused on striking date language tied to the injunction.
The board voted on the second reading of policy 2266, a nondiscrimination and Title IX contact policy that updates who the Title IX contacts are and includes contact email and phone information.
During discussion members raised a pending injunction at the state level and whether the revised language could be applied to cases with effective dates after July 31. One member urged language clarifying the policy's applicability during the injunction; Superintendent Shaw and others recommended striking the date language because the injunction currently prevents moving forward with some changes.
"Because this is our Title IX policy...we've gotta have one," Superintendent Shaw said, urging clarity in the policy book. After discussion the board voted to adopt the version under consideration with the suggested contact information updates.
The board recorded the vote by roll call and the motion passed. Members asked the superintendent and board attorney to ensure the adopted language reflects current legal constraints and to confirm which cases the policy covers while the injunction remains in place.
