Fourteen new policies from the 1000 Series, “Governing Principles,” were presented as first-read information at the meeting on August 17. One of the policies, 1310/4002 - Parental Involvement, has been revised since that time to reflect TCS current practice regarding “opt out” options for reproductive health curriculum.
