New Year, New Policies and Notices: Your Essential 2025 Legal Update for School Leaders

Join us for an enlightening session on one of the most important yet often overlooked aspects of school operations – keeping your policies and annual notices legally compliant and effective!

Just like a well-organized home needs regular maintenance and occasional deep cleanings, Board policies and annual notices require regular legal updates and an occasional comprehensive overhaul. These crucial documents cover everything from creating safe spaces for learning to ensuring every student – whether they are in foster care, experiencing homelessness, or have unique learning needs – receives the support they deserve.

In this practical webinar, we will unpack:

• The why behind Board policies and annual notices – beyond just checking boxes, these documents serve as your school’s roadmap for success and protection.

• The required and recommended policies and annual notices that serve your students and families, including recent legal updates that might affect your school.

• A guide to conducting a policy and annual notice “spring cleaning” – we will help you spot gaps and opportunities for improvement.

• Real-world strategies for organizing policies and notices and making them accessible and meaningful to your school community (because even the best policies and notices only work when people actually read them!)

Whether new to school administration or a seasoned leader, you will walk away with practical tools and confidence to strengthen your school’s policy foundation. Let us work together to turn these legal requirements into opportunities for building trust and effectively communicating with your school community!
