Summary

The Board approved student handbook amendments for multiple Orchard View schools but chose to hold off on approving the Orchard View High School handbook for further exploration prompted by public comment; motion carried 6-0 for the approved handbooks.

The Board reviewed and approved student handbook amendments for OV Early Elementary, Cardinal Elementary, Orchard View Middle School, the Early Childhood Program and the Innovative Learning Center on June 9, but asked administration to delay approval of the Orchard View High School (OVHS) handbook for further review.

Superintendent Jim Nielsen presented the handbooks and identified building-level presenters (for example, Megan Johnson and Lisa Brown for OV Early Elementary; Heather MacDonald and E'Lyse Benson for Cardinal Elementary). The motion to approve the handbooks as presented, except to table OVHS, passed 6-0 (motion: J. Taylor; support: L. Nelson).

The minutes do not include the specific handbook language changes prompting the OVHS delay; the Board noted tonight’s public comment would be further explored before acting on the OVHS handbook.
