ACS Board Policy Review
Rationale:
The Board is committed to the ongoing review and maintenance of Board Policy. While the Board is considering whether to use a 2 or 3 year cycle, it would be prudent to begin the process.
The policies in this month's review are standard policies and have no recommendation for change or update either from Mr. Hafer or the NASB Policy Review Service. A simple review is sufficient unless the Board proposes changes to the policies presented. As per Board Policy, a review of policy may be conducted by one reading of the Board. If changes are made, the current Board Policy requires 2 readings of the Board prior to the adoption of changes.

Closed/Executive Session - Superintendent Evaluation and Contract
Rationale:
The Board is required to evaluate the Superintendent at least annually. All Board members are given an opportunity to provide input resulting in a combined evaluation to give the Superintendent feedback related to performance and areas of growth.
Board Policy 0302.05 outlines the procedures for evaluating the superintendent. Further, the Board utilizes the NASB Evaluation Instrument and Model for carrying out the process. The contract to be considered is to be published at least 3 days prior to the meeting. Publishing via the district website is sufficient, but is also available here via Sparq and our Public Meetings Access for the public. The district continually complies with the Superintendent Pay Transparency Act by providing a direct link to the Superintendent's contract on the District Website at all times.
