314 Pre-Employment Physical Examination (Eliminate)

The District is recommending Policy 314 for elimination because the information contained in the policy is already covered in Policy 304 - Employment of District Staff and Policy 324 - Personnel Files. Thus, Policy 314 is duplicative. 


325 Meal Policy for District Employees (Eliminate)

The District recommends eliminating this policy and incorporating the language from it into Policy 331 - Employee Travel and Expense Reimbursement, making that policy the singular source of information about reimbursement of all employee expenses, regardless of the type of expense. 


331 Employee Travel, Meal, and Expense Reimbursement
810.3 School Vehicle Drivers (NEW)
823 Naloxone (NEW)
904 Public Attendance at School Events
905 Citizen Advisory Committees (Eliminate)
The Office of the Board of Education is recommending the elimination of policy 905. This policy is not required under law. It reiterates the authorizations that already exist in the Home Rule Charter, but doesn’t set any additional requirements.
