Board to research student representative policy; superintendent notes limits on executive session attendance and voting
Summary
Chair Phil Wiesner and Interim Superintendent Kim Kellison discussed creating a student representative role on the board; Kellison said student reps would not attend executive sessions and would not be permitted to vote. The board will request OSBA's policy to guide research and implementation.
Chair Phil Wiesner reminded the board that he had suggested adding an agenda item about a school board student representative the previous summer. Interim Superintendent Kim Kellison said she agrees with the suggestion and clarified that student representatives "would not be in executive session nor could vote." The board will request OSBA's policy to begin researching how to implement the role.
The board did not adopt a policy at the work session; instead, members agreed to collect relevant guidance from OSBA and return the item for future consideration at a regular meeting.
