Board gives first reading to library media selection policy, staff to provide permission-form procedure

Staff presented policy 25-10 (library media material selection) and explained the policy is required by state legislation; staff noted a parental permission slip will be used when a parent requests restriction. A trustee asked whether the permission slip should be included in the policy text; staff said the slip is a procedure and will be provided separately and is accessible on the district website.

Trustees moved to approve the policy on first reading. Staff also presented accompanying policy changes to align certified workday and extended employment language with the negotiated master agreement and described a required minute-of-silence provision for all grade levels; trustees approved the first reading motions recorded in the meeting.
