At last night’s meeting, the MUSD Board of Trustees discussed a District policy on maintaining appropriate interactions between students and District staff and faculty. The new policy reiterates mandated guidelines for reporting District employees who violate the policy. Some teachers and parents of students in attendance argued for more clearly defined sections on the use of social media by District employees and a review of the terms and overall language of the policy. During open session, the board voted unanimously to table the policy and introduce an amended version at a future meeting.
