Substitute urges board to audit policy GAAF implementation
Summary
Daniel Henke, a substitute teacher, asked the board to conduct a district-wide internal audit of policy GAAF implementation, training and guidance and to publicly report findings; he said he would seek KSDE review if the board declined.
During the public-comment period, Daniel Henke (who identified himself as a substitute teacher and district resident) told the board he had spent weeks reviewing policy GAAF and found it difficult to reconcile with governing statutes. He asked the board to commission a transparent internal audit of how GAAF is implemented across buildings, including training, guidance from executive administrators and documentation.
"If this board declines to ensure transparency and accountability, I will pursue every lawful avenue available to seek independent oversight, and that includes requesting review by the Kansas State Department of Education," Henke said. He emphasized the request is about student and educator safety and said a public report would build trust. The board received the comment and did not take formal action that night; the chair noted such items are referred to administrators for follow-up.
