Madison Interim Superintendent Jane Belmore (PDF):

1)Conduct and analyze survey of teachers, staff and administrators.

2)Taking into account survey results, Administration informs Board:
a) What legally has to change for the handbook.

b) What policies or practices set forth in CBAs are recommended to be carried forward as Board policy without change.

c) What policies or practices set forth in CBAs are recommended to be addressed as Board policy but should be reviewed and possibly changed.

d) What policies or practices set forth in CBAs are recommended not to be carried forward as Board policy.

The Administration's recommendations are presented at a meeting of the Board's Operational Support Committee on October 8. At a full meeting of the Board on October 29, the Board votes on the policies or practices to be submitted to designated working groups for discussion and collaborative exploration intended to culminate in consensus agreement on recommended approaches to the policies or practices.
