14-10. Notice of Serious Incidents

The Board will work with the CTU and other stakeholders (LSC, PPLC, SVC), including school administration, to create a communication process for notifying school staff of serious incidents at schools, with the understanding that privacy considerations may limit the level of detail that can be shared. When serious incidents impacting school community safety occur, the BOARD shall notify the UNION within 24 hours acknowledging the incident and the steps taken to address it. A “serious incident” is defined as: (1) death of a student or staff member; (2) any incident of gun violence on school property or in the community that involves a student; (3) situations that pose an immediate threat to the physical safety of students or staff.
