Board adopts referral protocols for student behavioral health concerns (Policy No. 5146)
Summary
The Board unanimously adopted Board Policy No. 5146 establishing referral protocols for addressing student behavioral health concerns; staff said the policy codifies processes already in place.
Dr. Damien Phillips presented a proposed Board Policy No. 5146 that sets referral protocols for addressing student behavioral health concerns. Phillips told the Board the plan incorporates processes the school already uses. Aaron Morgan moved to adopt the policy; Jonna Durst seconded and the Board voted unanimously to adopt Policy No. 5146.
The policy was presented as a formalization of existing practice; board minutes indicate no amendments were proposed at the meeting. The action will provide a written protocol for staff to follow when referring students for behavioral-health supports.
