Summary

Trustees voted to add, revise, or delete local policies per TASB Policy Service Update 126, a package that included policies on board meetings, public participation, contracted services, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, employee conduct, and student welfare.

The board approved TASB Localized Policy Manual Update 126 during the Nov. 17 meeting, adopting recommended additions, revisions and deletions to a broad set of local policies. The list included BE(LOCAL) and BED(LOCAL) on board meetings and public participation; CJ(LOCAL) and CJA(LOCAL) on contracted services and background checks; CQB(LOCAL) and CQD(LOCAL) addressing cybersecurity and artificial intelligence; multiple personnel, student safety and instructional policy codes; and other local policies identified in the update. Committee member Johnny Carvajal moved the action and Committee member Nicole Garza seconded; trustees voted to adopt the update.

Because the board adopted TASB's recommended localized changes as presented, the district directed administration to implement the updated local policy language and publish the revised local policies in the district policy manual.
