Proposed policy would require prompt parent notice about certain student-misconduct reports

What happened

A policy presented for a second reading would require the district to notify parents when a report gives reasonable cause to believe a student was subjected to staff sexual misconduct, certain serious child-sex offenses by staff, or unauthorized image-taking by a registered sex offender. For reports received during the school day, notice would be due by 5 p.m. that day; after hours, by noon the next calendar day.

Why it matters to families

If adopted, the rule would give families a defined, rapid notification process in serious student-safety cases; a report would trigger notice, not establish that the alleged conduct occurred.

The evidence

The April 27, 2026 board packet labels this a second-reading policy update. Draft Policy 1213 specifies the three report categories and requires in-person or telephone notice (including voicemail) to the parent or guardian of the student alleged to be affected, by the stated deadlines. The packet does not establish that the board adopted the policy.
