Summary

The committee reviewed NEOLA policy 0100 (Personal Communications Devices) as a technical change to match law and planned DEIB committee activities for the upcoming school year; Superintendent Kinzer will approve the technical policy change without bringing it to the full Board.

The committee reviewed NEOLA policy 0100 (Definitions — Personal Communications Devices) and characterized the language change as a technical update to bring policy text in line with current law. The minutes record that the committee viewed this as a technical correction and that "Dr. Kinzer will correct/approve for adoption and therefore no need to come to the board for approval."

Separately, the committee planned the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) committee's work for the upcoming school year and made plans for committee activities. The minutes do not specify the DEIB committee's planned projects or timelines; staff will proceed with planning for the coming school year.
