6.1. Review, consider, and take all necessary action to designate KSB School Law as the district's legal counsel and authorized them to provide the school district with legal counsel.
Rationale:
Executive Summary:
The firm, KSB Law, has been hired to provide the district with complete policy service and legal assistance with all policies. Also, they have been the firm that I contact with any legal questions, concerns, or issues. I would consider them at this point to be our district Legal service, but I have found nothing indicates the board has adopted KSB as its Legal Law Firm. There is no additional cost to the district. |

6.2. Recognition of the SEM-EA as the negotiation representative for the teachers for the 2022-2023 school year.
Rationale:
Executive Summary:
The legislature has made the negotiations process a part of statute. §48-818.01 time line includes that the Bargaining agent must request recognition on or before September 1 of the preceding year. In this case that the request is for the 2022-2023 school year. The SEM-EA and the SEM-BOE have meet this legal obligation for the 2021-2022 school year. It has been our practice to do this on or around the September board meeting a year in advance.
Action(s):
No Action(s) have been added to this Agenda Item.

6.3. Approval of 1000 Series SEM Board Policies
Rationale:
Executive Summary:
The 1000 Series Policies are general policy statements. There are only three policies for the board to consider. I have included the 1000 Series Memorandum from KSB to help explain some of the details. The current mission statement is, "The vision of Sumner-Eddyville-Miller public school is to empower all students to achieve their best, become productive problem-solving citizens, and embrace innovative tools to learn in a safe environment." With the advice or our attorney, we only do not need to have two different readings of the policy. We can do it in a single meeting.
