Nothing to discuss.

C.

Discussion of Employee Dispute Issues

Concerns were raised as it relates to an employee - employment attorney was involved due to potential disciplinary. Discussed that handbook review - we may have to advocate to go back to the old rule as it relates to PTO. There are issues with employee attendance and taking vacations during the school year - this is causing significant disruption to learning since we are constantly short staffed. Kendra is able to deny time offs request if it becomes a safety issue for the school. Next steps is for Kendra and Tommie to create an attendance report to be able to show the board when the handbook is being changed.
