Special Meeting – Action on “Revision to “Work Outside the Classroom” Policy
Michelle Bahr made a motion to approve the Work Outside the Classroom policy with the removal of the last two sentences which make up the last paragraph of the policy. The Board recommendation is the topic of “project work” noted in the removed sentences should be taken back to the individual buildings so protocol is developed for integrity, fidelity, authenticity and verification. This should not rise to the Board level. Dave Blum seconded the motion. All voted “aye”. Motion carried.
 
Adjournment
As there was no further business to come before the Board at this time, a motion was made by Craig Patzer and seconded by Michelle Bahr to adjourn the work session and special meeting at 8:20 p.m. All voted “aye”. Motion carried.
