School Website State ESI Requirements

From Mike Keener

State law requires some items to be posted on every school site.

K.A.R. 91-42-3(b) requires that the district???s emergency safety intervention policy be posted on each school???s website. Please note the bold reference to the website of each school, rather than just the district.

Additionally, K.A.R. 91-42-4(c)(2) requires that after emergency safety intervention incidents other than the first of the school year a parent must receive a full website address for the following information:

a) A copy of the standards of when emergency safety interventions can be used;
b) a flyer on the parent???s rights;
c) information on the parent???s right to file a complaint through the local dispute resolution process and the complaint process of the state board of education; and
d) information that will assist the parent in navigating the complaint process, including contact information for Families Together and the Disability Rights Center of Kansas.

The district web specialist will contact each school principal individually today via email to review??what (if anything) needs to be done with each respective site. This information needs to be added to school websites (where applicable) as soon as possible.

For your reference, the Board’s ESI policy is located here on the district’s public website, and further ESI-related information can be found under the “GAAF” section of Board policies on the district’s BoardDocs site.

 

For now, if you have any questions, please??contact Mike Keener.
