Board Advocacy Report
Rationale:
Our advocacy efforts for October were directed to reminders and "re-teaching" how we do communication and focusing people back to our website.
Attached is an example of one of the flyers created by Amanda Ganser and shared out. November we will shift gears to talk about and update stakeholders on the efforts and progress with the strategic plan.

ACS Policy Review
Rationale:
The ACS Board is committed to the ongoing review of Policies as part of the Nebraska Association of Schools Board Policy Support Service. The Board intends to review all Board policies on a 2 to 3 year cycle as recommended by NASB.
All Board policies are available to the public via Sparq online publishing which is linked to the district website and available here: Sparq Online Publishing (SOP) Each month, the Board intends to review 12 to 15 policies, depending on the nature and content of the policies. The Board may choose to pause with the routine review in the event there are new policies to adopt due to the action of the Nebraska State Legislature. The policies up for review this month are 12 policies from 2000-2440 under the "Series 2000s Administration" section. Please note, there are also job descriptions and admin regulations in this section also. This review is for the 12 board policies. |
