Board gives first approval to paid parental-leave policy
What happened
On August 10, the board approved first reading of policy 03.1233, with an effective date of August 12, 2026. A prior July discussion described a proposed 30-day paid maternity leave that would not draw from sick leave.
Why it matters to families
This could materially change employee leave benefits. The August minutes show first reading, not a completed second-reading adoption.
The evidence
Order #1071 records first-reading approval; the July 13 minutes describe the superintendent’s 30-day paid-leave proposal.
