Bullying Policy Revision Adds ‘Education’ and ‘Intervention’ Language
The committee is advancing revisions to Policy 249 on Bullying/Cyberbullying that add undefined ‘education’ and ‘intervention’ language. While the committee also requested wording on parental notification be added to the administrative regulation, the new policy language could serve as a vehicle for restorative justice or social-emotional learning frameworks.
Policy Use
TRACK AND DOCUMENT: Per item 5.C in the 9/10/26 report, request the draft text of Policy 249 moving to the full Board for Second Read. The terms ‘education’ and ‘intervention’ are undefined and require scrutiny.

District Adds Parental Notification for Student Athlete Injuries
The Policy Committee added language to new Policy 123.3 requiring parental notification for significant student injuries sustained during athletics. This policy is now moving to the full Board for a first reading, codifying a specific parental right to be informed of their child’s health status.
How to Capture It
CAPTURE THE MODEL: Item 5.A in the 9/10/26 meeting report confirms the addition of parental notification for injuries in Policy 123.3. Request the full text of the policy as it moves to the full Board and add it to the state model policy file for parental rights.
