The School Board of Broward County, Florida
Meeting: Regular School Board Meeting :  CC. Board Policies  
CC-3. Policy 6000.1: Student Progression Plan (D)  
November 09, 2010
Status: 
Open Agenda
 
 

Quick Summary / Abstract
Adopt revisions to Policy 6000.1:  Student Progression Plan, at this final reading.

There have been amendments to Florida Statues 1003.4156 and 1003.42, as well as newly adopted legislation from Senate Bill 4.  The School Board previously decided that all legislative changes are not required to follow the traditional process for policy adoption (i.e., Workshops), as they are legally required elements of our policies and therefore discussion is not necessary.  These policy changes must be enacted immediately as they impact students who have already begun the 2010-11 school year.  Therefore, Policy 6000.1 is being amended to align with the legislative changes.  This language will be added to the Policy.

There is no financial impact.
