Taylor Richmond, general counsel for the Vancouver School District, told the Committee of the Whole the district will present two policy items at the November board meeting: a first reading of student-discipline policy 3241 to reflect updated state student-discipline rules and model-policy revisions, and a second reading of policy 1400 addressing meeting conduct, order of business and quorum.

Richmond said procedural updates reflecting the new discipline rules have been in place since the start of the school year and that adopting policy language will align the district’s written policies with those procedures and the Washington State School Directors’ Association (WSSDA) model policy revisions. Richmond described policy 1400 as an internal update to reflect the current committee schedule and the fact that some special meetings are being conducted remotely rather than in person.

The transcript records these items as being presented for committee review and reading; no formal board votes or final adoptions are recorded in the provided excerpt.
