Board approves social media policy after separate vote; minutes show inconsistent item numbering
Summary
The board voted to approve a Social Media Policy that had been removed from the consent agenda; the minutes list the policy number inconsistently (4517 in some places, 5417 in others) and record two members voting nay.
The Marysville Public Schools Board discussed and separately approved a Social Media Policy at its Aug. 21 meeting after the item was removed from the consent grouping for further discussion.
Superintendent Tracie Eschenburg presented the recommended social media policy; the minutes state the item was discussed at the July 24 meeting and revised after legal review. A motion to remove the policy from the consent grouping was made and supported; the policy was later approved in a separate vote. The minutes record that Nick Thomas and Colleen Dodson voted "nay" on the final approval while the motion carried.
The minutes are inconsistent on the policy number: the Social Media Policy is referred to as #4517 in one place and as #5417 in the later motion language. The minutes do not include the policy text in-line; the item is referenced as Exhibit (noted in minutes) for board backup. The record does not detail the substance of the discussion or the specific legal advice referenced.
