Board reviews policy updates on civil rights, family/medical leave, naloxone and graduation credits
Summary
Board members reviewed changes to multiple personnel and student policies: nondiscrimination/civil-rights training and complaint tracking, family and medical leave aligned to state law, a new domestic-violence leave policy, updated graduation-credit language and a naloxone administration clarification for emergencies.
Board members reviewed several policy updates during the meeting. Changes to the nondiscrimination and civil-rights policy codified training responsibilities and complaint-tracking procedures; the presenter said Magdalena is working through the training series. The family and medical leave policy was revised to align with state law changes so certain leave no longer runs concurrently, and a new policy was introduced to administer leave for domestic violence, harassment, assault, bias incidents or stalking.
On medication policy, the Board heard that prior training requirements for naloxone administration were relaxed so that during an overdose emergency "anyone can do that," enabling immediate aid if available. Regarding graduation policy, the board heard a first reading that replaces an alternative certificate with a certificate of attendance option and adds two 0.5-credit requirements (higher-education/career-path skills and personal finance) while maintaining a 24-credit graduation total.
