District 191 to formalize student representative alternate and meeting schedule in policy 299

Dr. Latanya Daniels presented recommended edits to Policy 299, which governs the student representative to the school board. She told the committee the updates would "add language acknowledging that our school student school board rep may have an alternate" and would specify times for student representatives to meet with the superintendent to share their report prior to meetings.

A board member asked whether the change simply codifies existing practice; Dr. Daniels confirmed that was the intent. Committee members agreed to schedule Policy 299 for a first reading at the next meeting so the formal language can be reviewed.

Next steps: Policy 299 will be listed for a first reading at the committee’s next meeting. The transcript records the committee’s procedural agreement but does not show a formal vote or the final policy text.
