Agenda Item Summary: As part of the Board’s continuing policy review cycle, ten policies (and implementing regulations) from the classifications below are proposed for revision.

A Policies: Foundations and Basic Commitments
B Policies: School Board Governance and Operations
C Policies: General School Administration
E Policies: Support Operations

These revisions are primarily driven by changes to the Code of Virginia and Virginia Board of Education regulations. However, some have also been initiated by ACPS to either reflect current practice or the changing needs of the school division. Finally, some have been included to comply with the state of Virginia’s five-year policy review requirement.

The following chart outlines the policy and regulatory revisions:
AC
AD
AE
BBA
BBFA
BCF BCF-R
BDD
CBA
CF
EBCD EBCD-R
Background: The Code of Virginia § 22.1-253.13:7 and Policy BF require the School Board to maintain and follow up-to-date policies, and that all policies shall be reviewed at least every five years and revised as needed.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends the School Board review the attached policy and regulatory revisions
