Board approves first-reading policy updates on school safety plans and parent notifications
The Maryville Board of Education approved on first reading revisions to several policies related to school safety. Dr. Winstead told the board that Policy 6.205 will require principals to develop a school safety plan and Policy 6.308 will require principals to notify all parents by the end of the school day when a classroom evacuation occurs.

Board member Nick Black asked for clarification about how the policies address orders of protection. Board members voted to approve the first-reading changes unanimously. The revisions will return for additional readings or action as required by board policy.
