The student left the facility after a few days and therefore did not need tutoringuntil the end of the 2019-2020 school year.

Long Island Tutorial Services works in conjunction with the rehabilitation facility and wasdeemed the best provider of education to the student.

(X) Notice

ANNUAL DISTRICT MEETING BY-LAWS OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION

The district shall hold an annual election and budget vote at which the district’s authorized

voters will elect members of the Board of Education and vote on the district budget for the coming

school year. The annual district election and budget vote will be held on the third Tuesday in May,

unless, due to a conflict with religious observance, the Board requests that the Commissioner

approve changing the election date to the second Tuesday in May. The request is due to the

Commissioner by March 1st.

The District Clerk shall publish a notice of the time and place of the annual election and

budget vote at least four times within the seven weeks prior to the election, in two newspapers

having general circulation within the district. The first publication of the notice shall be at least 45

days prior to the election. The notice shall also contain notice of any other matter required by law.

Copies of the budget to be voted upon at the annual election and budget vote will be

available upon request in each district school building, at the school district offices, and at any

public library or free association library within the district, for district residents at the time of the

annual election and budget vote and the 14 days preceding (other than Saturday, Sunday and

holidays).

The Board shall appoint assistant clerks and election inspectors necessary for the annual

election and budget vote at a Board meeting held before the annual election and budget vote.

Propositions

The Board has the authority, under the Education Law, to adopt reasonable rules and

regulations concerning the submission of petitions to the Board to place propositions on the ballot

which may amend the budget. Pursuant to those provisions, the Board establishes the following

guidelines:

1. Petition for the submission of a proposition to be placed upon the voting machines must

contain a minimum of twenty-five (25) signatures of qualified voters of the district, or five

percent (5%) of the number of voters at the last annual election, whichever is greater, and

filed in the office of the District Clerk between the hours of 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM not later

than thirty (30) days prior to the annual meeting to facilitate the preparation and printing

of the ballots.

2. Petitions must be filed with the District Clerk at least 30 days prior to the annual election,

except for petitions relating to a proposition which must be included in the notice of the

annual election (e.g., changing the number of board members). Such petitions must be

J.1.1.a

Packet Pg. 163

submitted 60 days in advance of the annual election to facilitate the preparation and

printing of the ballots.

3. Propositions must include the specific appropriations necessary for the purposes listed.

4. Wording of a petition must comply with legal requirements. If the wording does not

comply, it may be changed or altered by the Board, or the Board may reject a petition for

failure to comply.

Propositions received in accordance with these specifications will be placed on the ballot

as amendments and will be voted upon by the voters in the same manner as the proposed budget,

except that the Board shall not be required to place any proposition on the ballot which is within

the exclusive province of the Board, or otherwise forbidden by law. No proposition involving the

budget may be submitted to the voters more than twice within a twelve month period.

The Board may also, on its own motion, submit propositions.

Improper Advocacy

The district may provide informational material to the voters concerning budgets,

propositions, or other matters before the electorate. However, school district funds and resources

may not be used to exhort voters to support a particular position. For example, the district will not

engage in activities including, but not limited to, sending flyers supporting the budget home with

students, providing mailing labels for materials supporting a proposition or using the district e-

mail to deliver promotional material for candidates.

The Superintendent may permit the expenditure to a maximum of $5000 peruse for each each consultant so retained. The Superintendent shall report to the Board, as a matter of information, each time a consultant is retained.

session. Upon a majority vote of its members, the Board may convene in executive session at a

7. the preparation, grading or administration of examinations; and

8. the proposed acquisition, sale, or lease of real property or the proposed acquisition of

securities, or sale or exchange of securities, but only when publicity would substantially

affect the value thereof.

understand the topic the Board will be discussing, without disclosing specifics. Discussion in

executive session shall be limited to the topic(s) identified in the motion.

A Board may not take action in executive session except to vote on disciplinary charges

against a tenured employee.

executive session. However, the Board, acting as a whole, may decide to disclose such information

where disclosure is not prohibited under the law.

HEWLETT-WOODMERE PUBLIC SCHOOLS Policy 2700 BOARD-STAFF COMMUNICATIONS The success of any school system requires effective communication between the Board of Education and school staff. Such communication is necessary for facilitating proposals for the continuing improvement of the educational program and for the proper disposition of personnel problems which may arise. The main goal of both the Board and the staff is to provide the best possible educational opportunities for the entire community. To achieve this end, good Board-staff relations must be maintained in a climate of mutual trust and respect. At the same time, the Board in exercising its public trust to provide thorough and efficient public education, cannot dissipate or transfer its responsibilities. In accordance with good personnel practice, staff participation in the development of educational and personnel policies will be encouraged and facilitated. The Superintendent of Schools, as professional leader of the staff and the chief executive of the Board, will develop appropriate methods to keep staff fully informed of the Board's problems, concerns and actions, and for staff to communicate information related to district operations. All communications and reports to the Board from staff members and staff organizations will be submitted to the Board through the Superintendent. All official communications, policies, and directives of staff interest and concern will be communicated to staff members through the Superintendent. However, this will not be construed as denying the right of any staff member to appeal any action or decision of the Superintendent to the Board. All effective means of facilitating channels of communication between the Board and staff will be explored in order to promote close and cooperative action for the continuing improvement of the educational program and the mutual benefit of the school system and the community.
