The Reynolds School District Board encourages student involvement in the school district. Involvement is defined in two ways: 1) a high school student to act as reporter or ambassador from his or her high school; and 2) one high school Student Board Representative.
Student Representative to Board
The board at its discretion may appoint a student representative to the board. One student representative may be selected each year.
The board has the authority and responsibility to establish policy. The board accepts the definition of policy set forth by the National School Boards Association:
All Board meetings, with the exception of executive sessions, will be open to the public. The Board invites district community members to attend Board meetings to become acquainted with the program and operation of the district. Members of the public also are encouraged to share their ideas and opinions with the Board when appropriate.
The board may meet in executive session to discuss subjects allowed by statute but may not take final action except for the expulsion of students and matters pertaining to or examination of the confidential medical records of a student, including that student’s educational program.
In an ongoing effort to increase communication with the public and to provide for citizen involvement, the board may appoint advisory committees which include community members to consider matters of districtwide importance.
