12/08/2009 Completed: Attended today's School Board meeting and witnessed the "2nd reading" of all revised policies which was really just a recommendation from the committee to accept the policies from the 1st reading with some specific exceptions that are still being developed. The motion to accept was seconded and passed unanimously. The new Religion Policy i.e. #2270 was a sub section of the "#2200 Program" section which was accepted without changes from the 1st reading. Other sections and policies were unfinished.
12/01/2009 Received: Email back from Dr. Mortimer, Director of Policy and Planning PSCB, Re: "policy is scheduled for adoption at the December 8, 2009 Board meeting."

(See emaiBlog for confirmation since SB only publishes meeting minutes in arrears.) Other policy readings to be heard on Oct. 13th meeting. (BTW I sent this with some questions to Liberty Council and one of the lawyers called me back and said that it was not as comprehensive as their original but that it was OK, no gaping omissions, and that it was "defensible".)
