Purpose

The Board also recognizes its responsibility for proper governance of the district and the need to conduct its business in an orderly and efficient manner.

Authority

The Board shall adopt policy to govern public participation in Board meetings necessary to conduct its meeting and to maintain order.[1]

In order to permit fair and orderly expression of public comment, the Board shall provide an opportunity at each open meeting of the Board for residents and taxpayers to comment on matters of concern, official action or deliberation before the Board prior to official action by the Board.[2]

Delegation of Responsibility

The presiding officer at each public Board meeting shall follow Board policy for the conduct of public meetings. Where his/her ruling is disputed, it may be overruled by a majority of those Board members present and voting.[3][4]

Guidelines

https://go.boarddocs.com/pa/plea/Board.nsf/vpublic?open 10/2/2020

Whenever issues identified by the participant are subject to remediation under policies and procedures of the Board, they shall be dealt with in accordance with those policies and procedures.

The Board requires that public participants be residents and/or taxpayers of the district; anyone representing a group in the community or district; any representative of a firm eligible to bid on materials or services solicited by the Board; any district employee; any district student; district alumni; or government official speaking on official school related business/issues. The Board has the right to exclude from the public comment segment anyone who is not one of the above.

The time allowed for the public comment period will be limited to one (1) hour at the beginning of the meeting and one (1) hour of public comment prior to adjournment, unless the Board agrees that the topic warrants additional time.

When recognized by the presiding officer, it will be expected that the participant will preface his/her remarks by announcing his/her name, his/her address or address of taxable property, and group affiliation, if appropriate.

Each statement made by a participant shall be limited to three (3) minutes' duration and shall occur from the designated speaking area.

No participant may speak more than once on the same topic, unless all others who wish to speak on that topic have been heard.

All statements shall be directed to the presiding officer; no participant may address or question Board members individually.

The presiding officer will:

1. Interrupt or terminate a participant's statement when the statement is too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant.

2. Request any individual to leave the meeting when that person does not observe reasonable decorum.

3. Request the assistance of law enforcement officers or school police or security personnel in the removal of a disorderly person when his/her conduct interferes with the orderly progress of the meeting.

4. Call for a recess or adjourn to another time when the lack of public decorum interferes with the orderly conduct of the meeting.

5. Waive these rules with the approval of the Board.

If the Board determines there is not sufficient time at a meeting for public comments, the Board may defer the comment period to the next regular meeting or to a special meeting occurring in advance of the next regular meeting.[2]

No placards or banners will be permitted within the meeting room or on school grounds without prior approval of the Board.

Electronic recording devices and cameras, in addition to those used as official recording devices, shall be permitted at public meetings as long as it does not interrupt the orderly proceedings of the meeting.

The meeting agenda for each regularly scheduled meeting will be forwarded to each Board member one (1) week prior to the meeting. The agenda will also be available to the public online three (3) days prior to the Board meeting.

The meeting agenda and all pertinent documents shall be available in paper form to the following persons prior to or at the beginning of each meeting; less confidential material, if requested by noon on the day of the Board meeting to the Secretary to the Superintendent:

1. Members of the press and others.

2. President of the Pleasant Valley Education Association.

3. President of the Pleasant Valley Support Staff Personnel Association.

If an emergency makes it impossible to attend the Board meeting, the requester shall call the Superintendent’s office and pick up the packet before the next regularly scheduled Board meeting.

per visiting player, subject to adherence with the District Health and Safety Plan and any

modifications that may be made to the Plan by the administration, and subject to change

depending on any further orders or directives from the Governor and/or the federal courts

surrounding his Order.

Due to this item not being an agenda item, Mrs. Yozwiak provided an opportunity for

Pleasant Valley citizens to comment.

Angela Hill, Polk Township, questioned if this would include band member parents. Mr.

Fitzgerald clarified that the motion on the table is to defer to the administration to create

specifics staying at or below the 25% capacity and is therefore subject to administration

discretion following Board approval.

all participants including at least one parent of players, band members, and cheerleaders to

be able to be present. She also encouraged keeping groups together preferably on the home

Board to vote in favor of it.

SUPERINTENDENT-REPORT/REQUESTS: Dr. Lee J. Lesisko

Dr. Lesisko provided a background to the PV Cyber Academy since its inception in 2007

averaging between 200 and 300 students per year. He stated that in mid-July the parent

survey results indicated that only 288 students were slated to enroll in our Cyber Academy

but in actuality well over 1,000 sought to enroll and we had to modify our program in late

August and September. He stated that over 800 cyber materials have been provided or are

ready to be picked up and the students have been notified. A small number of additional

students are in the process of being scheduled by our vendor and in most cases these were

students who requested cyber in late August or September. Dr. Lesisko stated that students

beyond the 800 count will have access to teachers assigned by the school district during the

school day and all students will have full access to the website including online courses,

lessons, assessments, and course resources. These resources will supplant the course

textbook and staff is working on a viable solution for gifted programming.

and pending solicitor review.

Prior to the roll call vote, Ms. Greggo suggested waiting on this program and to reconsider it

when students are back in school five days a week to reach the full potential of the program.

September 24, 2020 Minutes - Page 10 of 15

She stated that while she does not doubt that this is a great program, she expressed concern

about the timing and availability of students. Ms. Greggo stated that the Diversity Task Force

meetings have included representatives from all schools including students. She expressed

concern that this program does not support the current vision of the Diversity Task Force. In

answer to Mrs. Yozwiak’s question about funds from the Cares Act, Dr. Mowrer Benda

clarified that these funds would come out of the Cares Grant for professional development for

staff. Dr. Mowrer Benda explained the reasons for reduction in the amount of time with

consultants and reduction in the scope. She addressed the needs for the program stressing

the importance of meeting the needs of teachers first seeking to provide support,

understanding, and expertise as they not only deal with themselves, but how they can then

lead our students. She stressed the importance of the passage of this motion and stated that

there is an upcoming Act 80 day where planning can begin. She stated that the Diversity

Task Force will be supported in this endeavor. Dr. Mauro stated that building principals

support this professional development and he advocates an affirmative vote. Mrs. Kresge

stated that this would be in line with the Superintendent’s Goal #3 for social and emotional

learning. Mrs. Yozwiak stated that Goal #3 does cover this as well as for Dr. Lesisko to do a

comprehensive evaluation of the culture of the District and that this agreement would play

into completion of that goal. Ms. Greggo again expressed concern about the timing of this

program stating that waiting a year would give us the whole program. Further discussion was

held and Mr. Burger stated that he is in favor of moving forward and meeting our greatest

need in order to keep staff healthy and able to work with students. Mr. Wunder stated that

the IU is moving forward in this direction and he will support it. There being no further

discussion, the following action was taken:

The Board shall exercise leadership through its rule-making power by adopting Board procedures and policies for the organization and operation of the school district. Those procedures and policies which are not dictated by the statutes, or regulations of the State Board, or ordered by a court of competent authority may be adopted, amended or repealed at any meeting of the Board, provided the proposed adoption, amendment or repeal has been proposed at a previous Board meeting and has remained on the agenda of each succeeding Board meeting until approved or rejected.[1][2][3][4][5]

Changes in a proposed Board procedure or policy, except for minor editorial revisions, at the second reading shall cause that reading to constitute a first reading.[2]

The Board may, upon a majority vote, cause to suspend at any time the operation of a Board procedure or policy, provided the suspension does not conflict with legal

Purpose

The Board adopts this policy to define the minimum requirements for screening; educational evaluations conducted to determine eligibility for special education services, instructional levels and programming requirements for students with disabilities, including functional behavioral assessments; and requirements for independent educational evaluations.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][9][10][12][18][21]

Authority

The Board shall adopt a system of screeningthat may include early intervening services and must be designed to accomplish identification and initial screening for students prior to district referral for a special education evaluation. The system shall provide support to staff to improve working effectively with students in the general education curriculum, identify students who may require special education services and programs, and must include hearing and vision screening and screening at reasonable intervals to determine whether students are performing at grade appropriate levels in core academic subjects.[1][7][11]

Early intervening services shall comply with the requirements of state and federal law and regulations in order to address academic concerns or behaviors that may be impeding success, but which can be resolved through research-based intervention programs in the regular education setting.[7]

The Board authorizes the use of functional behavioral assessments (FBAs)as an evaluation to gather information to understand the purpose of the student’s behaviors and to assist with developing a positive Behavior Support Plan. FBAs must be conducted when:[5][12][9][13][10]

1. A student’s behavior interferes with his/her learning or the learning of others and information is necessary to provide appropriate educational programming.

2. A student’s behavior violates the Code of Student Conduct and is determined to be a manifestation of a student’s disability.

3. A student is placed in an interim alternative educational placement for a qualifying reason permitting such placement for up to forty-five (45) school days for certain offenses.

4. The school contacts law enforcement regarding a student who already has a positive Behavior Support Plan.

FBAs may also constitute part of the initial evaluation to determine eligibility for special education.

The district shall comply with requirements of state and federal laws and regulations when conducting evaluations.[2][6][22][16][18]

An appropriate evaluation of a student, whether conducted by district staff or individuals not employed by the district, shall consist of the administration of all testing and the use of all assessment procedures required to determine the existence of all legally defined disabilities reasonably suspected by district staff, parents/guardians, or the evaluator. An appropriate evaluation shall assist in determining the content of the IEP to enable a student with a disability to be involved in and progress in the general curriculum.

A student shall be assessed in all areas related to the suspected disability including, as appropriate, health, vision, hearing, social and emotional status, general intelligence, academic performance, communicative status and motor abilities.

BoardDocs® Pro Page 2 of 6

https://go.boarddocs.com/pa/plea/Board.nsf/Private?open&login 9/28/2020

A re-evaluation of a student who currently has an IEP shall be conducted as required by state and federal law and regulations.[3][6][16][23]

Guidelines

Parent/Guardian Requests

Parents/Guardians may request an evaluation at any time. The parent/guardian request must be in writing. If a request is made orally to any professional employee or administrator, that individual shall provide a copy of the permission to evaluate form to the parents/guardians within ten (10) calendar days of the oral request.[1][2]

The evaluation shall be completed and a copy of the evaluation report presented to parents/guardians no later than sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of written parent/guardian consent for an evaluation, exclusive of the period following the last day of the spring school term to the first day of the subsequent fall term.

Appropriate Evaluations

An appropriate evaluation shall use a variety of assessment tools and strategies to gather relevant functional, developmental and academic information about a student.[2][6][18][21]

An appropriate evaluation shall include:

1. Testing and assessment techniques required in light of information currently available from previous evaluations.

2. Information from parents/guardians and school staff familiar with the performance of the student.

3. The student’s education records.

The evaluator shall review all such sources of information prior to conducting testing and assessment. The evaluator shall review assessments conducted by others that indicate how the student is responding to early intervening services and scientific research-based instruction and/or include such assessments as part of his/her evaluation.

To the extent that the results of such instructional assessments are inconsistent with the results of norm or criterion-referenced testing and assessments that the evaluator has administered, the evaluator shall explain the reason for the inconsistency in his/her report, if possible.

When assessing the presence of a specific learning disability, the evaluation shall be consistent with procedures adopted by the district and comply with state and federal law and regulations.[4][24]

Testing and assessment procedures shall be selected and administered to yield valid measurement or assessment of the construct or quality they purport to measure or assess. The evaluator shall administer any testing or assessment procedures in a manner consistent with the requirements and recommendations of the publisher of the test or procedure and in compliance with applicable and authoritatively recognized professional principles and ethical tenets. S/He shall report any factor that might affect the validity of any results obtained.

All assessments and evaluation materials shall be selected and administered so as not to be discriminatory on a racial or cultural basis. Where feasible, assessments and evaluations

BoardDocs® Pro Page 3 of 6

https://go.boarddocs.com/pa/plea/Board.nsf/Private?open&login 9/28/2020

shall be administered in a language and form most likely to provide accurate information about the student.

The evaluation shall include an observation of the student in an educational setting, unless the student is not currently in such a setting. The evaluator shall obtain information concerning the performance of the student directly from at least one (1) current teacher of the student, unless s/he does not have a current teacher.

The evaluator shall hold an active certification that qualifies the evaluator to conduct that type of evaluation. If certification is not issued for the particular area of professional practice in which the evaluator is lawfully engaged, the evaluator shall hold such license or other credentials as required for the area of professional practice under state law.

The evaluator shall prepare and sign a full report of the evaluation containing:

1. Clear explanation of the testing and assessment results.2. Complete summary of all test scores, including, for all standardized testing

administered, all applicable full scale or battery scores; domain or composite scores; and subtest scores reported in standard, scaled, or T-score format.

3. Complete summary of all information obtained or reviewed from sources other than testing conducted by the evaluator.

4. Identification of all special education and related services needs and relevant information that directly assists persons in determining the educational needs of the student.

5. Specific, individualized recommendations for consideration by the IEP team for educational programming and placement to enable the student to participate as appropriate in the general education curriculum in the least restrictive environment, as defined by federal and state law and regulations.

Re-Evaluations

Re-evaluations shall be conducted within the timeframes required by state and federal laws and regulations unless the parent/guardian and the district agree in writing that a re-evaluation is unnecessary. For students with intellectual disability, the re-evaluation cannot be waived. The group of qualified professionals that reviews the evaluation materials to determine whether the child is a student with a disability shall include a certified school psychologist when evaluating a student for autism, emotional disturbance, intellectual disability, multiple disabilities, other health impairment, specific learning disability and traumatic brain injury.[3][20][25]

Copies of the re-evaluation report shall be disseminated to parents/guardians at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting of the IEP team unless this requirement is waived in writing.

Independent Educational Evaluations

A parent/guardian who disagrees with the results or content of an evaluation performed or obtained by the district may request an independent educational evaluation at district expense. A parent/guardian is entitled to only one (1) independent educational evaluation at public expense each time the district conducts an evaluation with which the parent/guardian disagrees. The independent educational evaluation must arise from parents’/guardians’ disagreement with the district’s most recent evaluations or re-evaluations of the student. The district shall be entitled to a copy of all results of independent educational evaluations conducted at public expense. If an oral request for an independent educational evaluation is made to a professional employee or administrator, that person shall inform the parent/guardian that the request must be in writing. If the

BoardDocs® Pro Page 4 of 6

https://go.boarddocs.com/pa/plea/Board.nsf/Private?open&login 9/28/2020

native language of the parent/guardian is other than English, the requirement that the parent/guardian make his/her request in writing shall be conveyed by whatever means practicable and, where feasible, in the native language of the parent/guardian.[18]

A written request for an independent educational evaluation at district expense shall be immediately forwarded to the Director of Special Education, who may, upon receipt of the written parent/guardian request, ask that the parent/guardian state his/her reasons for disagreement with the evaluation conducted or proposed by the district. The district cannot require the parent/guardian to do so, and the refusal of the parent/guardian shall not delay the process required by this policy.

The criteria under which the independent educational evaluation at public expense is obtained must be the same as the criteria used by the district in conducting an appropriate evaluation, including the location of the evaluation and the qualifications of the examiner, to the extent those criteria are consistent with the parent’s/guardian’s right to an independent educational evaluation at public expense. The qualified examiners who conduct the independent educational evaluation may not be employed by the public agency responsible for the education of the student.

Within ten (10) school days of receipt of a request for an independent educational evaluation in writing from a parent/guardian, the Director of Special Education shall either initiate a due process hearing to show that the district’s evaluation is appropriate and notify the parent/guardian in writing that s/he has done so or issue to the parent/guardian correspondence containing:

1. Assurance that the district will pay for an independent educational evaluation as long as the evaluation meets all of the requirements of an appropriate evaluation and is in compliance with this policy.

2. Statement that the district will not pay for the evaluation until it receives directly from the evaluator a complete copy of a report of that evaluation and determines that the evaluation is in compliance with this policy.

3. Request that the parents/guardians consider accessing reimbursement for all or part of the evaluation from public or private sources of insurance or reimbursement, together with a clear assurance that the parent/guardian is not required to do so and that the district will pay any cost not covered by such sources.

4. Directions that the parent/guardian is responsible for arranging for the evaluation and ensuring that the evaluator contacts the Director of Special Education to arrange for payment of the evaluation.

Upon request, the district shall provide to parents/guardians information about where an independent educational evaluation may be obtained.

If the evaluation has already been conducted and paid for, the district shall issue correspondence advising the parent/guardian that the district will not reimburse the parent/guardian for the evaluation until it receives a complete and unredacted copy of the report of the evaluation and determines that the evaluation is in compliance with this policy. The district shall require documentation substantiating that the parents/guardians paid for or incurred the obligation to pay for the evaluation without reimbursement from a public or private source of insurance or reimbursement.

The Director of Special Education shall send the correspondence to the parent/guardian by certified mail or by other independently verifiable means of conveyance and enclose a copy of this policy.

BoardDocs® Pro Page 5 of 6

https://go.boarddocs.com/pa/plea/Board.nsf/Private?open&login 9/28/2020

The Director of Special Education shall maintain a list of qualified independent evaluators in each of the various disciplines commonly relied upon to provide education-related evaluations and assessments and shall promptly make that list available to any parent/guardian who requests it.

Whenever issues identified by the participant are subject to remediation under policies and procedures of the Board, they shall be dealt with in accordance with those policies and procedures.

The Board requires that public participants be residents and/or taxpayers of the district; anyone representing a group in the community or district; any representative of a firm eligible to bid on materials or services solicited by the Board; any district employee; any district student; district alumni; or government official speaking on official school related business/issues. The Board has the right to exclude from the public comment segment anyone who is not one of the above.

The time allowed for the public comment period will be limited to one (1) hour at the beginning of the meeting and one (1) hour of public comment prior to adjournment, unless the Board agrees that the topic warrants additional time.

When recognized by the presiding officer, it will be expected that the participant will preface his/her remarks by announcing his/her name, his/her address or address of taxable property, and group affiliation, if appropriate.

Each statement made by a participant shall be limited to three (3) minutes' duration and shall occur from the designated speaking area.

No participant may speak more than once on the same topic, unless all others who wish to speak on that topic have been heard.

All statements shall be directed to the presiding officer; no participant may address or question Board members individually.

The presiding officer will:

1. Interrupt or terminate a participant's statement when the statement is too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant.

2. Request any individual to leave the meeting when that person does not observe reasonable decorum.

3. Request the assistance of law enforcement officers or school police or security personnel in the removal of a disorderly person when his/her conduct interferes with the orderly progress of the meeting.

4. Call for a recess or adjourn to another time when the lack of public decorum interferes with the orderly conduct of the meeting.

5. Waive these rules with the approval of the Board.

If the Board determines there is not sufficient time at a meeting for public comments, the Board may defer the comment period to the next regular meeting or to a special meeting occurring in advance of the next regular meeting.[2]

No placards or banners will be permitted within the meeting room or on school grounds without prior approval of the Board.

Electronic recording devices and cameras, in addition to those used as official recording devices, shall be permitted at public meetings as long as it does not interrupt the orderly proceedings of the meeting.

The meeting agenda for each regularly scheduled meeting will be forwarded to each Board member one (1) week prior to the meeting. The agenda will also be available to the public online three (3) days prior to the Board meeting.

The meeting agenda and all pertinent documents shall be available in paper form to the following persons prior to or at the beginning of each meeting; less confidential material, if requested by noon on the day of the Board meeting to the Secretary to the Superintendent:

1. Members of the press and others.

2. President of the Pleasant Valley Education Association.

3. President of the Pleasant Valley Support Staff Personnel Association.

If an emergency makes it impossible to attend the Board meeting, the requester shall call the Superintendent’s office and pick up the packet before the next regularly scheduled Board meeting. If the packet is not claimed by the next regularly scheduled Board meeting, the requester will be charged the prevailing per page duplication rate of twenty-five cents ($0.25) per single page. No future requests will be honored until the packet in question is paid for.

Copies of the meeting agenda will be available to all Board meeting attendees.
