Board reviews nondiscrimination policy; administration proposes Civil Rights Coordinator
Summary
In a first read of Policy AC, the board reviewed updates tied to HB 221 requiring a Civil Rights Coordinator; Interim Superintendent Kim Kellison recommended Assistant Superintendent Anthony Rosilez for the role, and Rosilez estimated the time commitment at up to 10 hours per month.
Board members reviewed Policy AC (Nondiscrimination) in its first reading as recommended by the Oregon School Boards Association. Interim Superintendent Kim Kellison said the update reflects HB 221 requirements and called for designation of a Civil Rights Coordinator; she proposed Assistant Superintendent Anthony Rosilez fill the role.
Rosilez told the board the time commitment for the coordinator varies by complaint but estimated it would be "no more than 10 hours per month" and noted that training requirements for the position have increased. The board did not finalize the appointment at the work session; Policy AC will return for subsequent readings consistent with the board's three-read process.
