COMMUNICATION:

When contacted by members of the community, parents, staff, faculty, or administration, the board member shall encourage the individual to adhere to the following communication chain of command:

Community member – Principal or Board liaison – Principal – Board

Parent regarding their child – Child’s Teacher – Team leader – AP – Principal – Board

Parent regarding school operations or personnel – AP – Principal – Board

Staff – supervisor or AP – AP – Principal – Board

Faculty – Team leader – Faculty Liaison – Principal – Board

Administration – Principal – Board

Community/Staff/Faculty/Parent regarding Principal – Board

**The Principal should be given the opportunity to meet with the individual prior to being brought before the board.

The spirit of this policy is to allow for proper communication and due process that maintains a “leadership and collaborative culture.” It is not the purpose of this board to become receptacles of gossip, hearsay, or public complaints.

The board member may be permitted to respond to the individual however, they must cc the principal, AP, or board liaison (or whomever the board votes as the point of contact). Once the response is cc’d to the principal (or designee), the aforementioned communication chain of command is thus set in motion.

Any comment of concern relayed to a board member may not be withheld from the chain of command process. Withholding this type of information undermines due process and elements of the Ivy Hawn Way, most specifically “kindness and respect.”
