Attached are several policies recommended for revision by WSSDA:
Policy 1610: Conflicts of Interest
When Woodland became a Class 1 District in 2007 this policy was not updated. As well, WSSDA has updated language for the purpose of clarity.
Policy 2411: Certificate of Educational competency
The changes reflect increased clarity and comply with revised WAC.
Policy 3122: Excused and Unexcused Absences
State law requires that all districts use a uniform description of excused absences. This policy change reflects that state definition.

Reflects changes to reporting requirements.
Policy 5201: Drug-Free Schools, Community and Workplace
Reflects expanded definition of "Workplace"
Policy 5404: Family, Maternity and Military Caregiver Leave
Reflects statutory changes to the Family Leave statutes, addressing Maternity and Military leave.
Policy 6890: State Environmental Policy Act Compliance
Reflects statutory changes and provides clarity.
Policy 6950: Contractor Assurances, Surety Bonds, and Insurance
Cleans up language and allows the superintendent to authorize some change orders on capital projects.
