Virtual Meetings: The bill continues to allow board members to electronically attend meetings from any location if the board has determined that it is necessary for health and safety to meet electronically and the board affirms this determination every 30 days. Further, unlike the executive order, AB 361 requires that members of the public must be provided the opportunity to provide public comment in real time.
Let's discuss what we feel we need to do. |

|
In accordance with Section 11701 of Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations, setting policy pursuant to Education Code section 51747, the Board shall consider, in a public hearing, the scope of its existing or prospective use of independent study as an instructional strategy, its purposes in authorizing independent study, and factors bearing specifically on the maximum realistic lengths of assignments and acceptable number of missed assignments for specific populations of pupils or adult education students. This policy shall reflect an awareness that excessive leniency in its terms can result in pupils falling so far behind their age peers as to increase, rather than decrease, the risk of their dropping out of school.
