School Board Use of E-Mail
Use of electronic communication (email) by school board members
must conform to the same standards of judgment, propriety,
and ethics as other forms of board-related communication.
The school board will not use email as a substitute for deliberations
at board meetings or for other communications or business
properly confined to board meetings. Board members must be
aware that email and email attachments received or prepared
for use in board meetings or containing information relating
to board business are likely to be regarded as public records
which may be inspected by any person upon request, unless
otherwise made confidential by law.
