The Jefferson School District 14J board voted to adopt an immigration‑enforcement policy (KNA) and two related administrative regulations after staff said the documents arrived from the Oregon School Boards Association after the policy committee met.
"Districts are required to have a policy in place by September 30, and that is in Oregon statute," said Don, the superintendent, explaining why the board needed to act now. Staff proposed adopting the OSBA language to ensure compliance and bringing the documents back to the policy committee for any refinements.
A board member moved to adopt KNA and the ARs as presented; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. Several members noted discomfort with the short timeline but supported the interim adoption so the district would meet the statutory deadline.
The board directed staff to schedule a policy committee meeting to review the adopted documents and to return any suggested changes to the full board. No amendments to the adopted language were recorded at the meeting.
