At the June 20 meeting, Dr. Brian Weaver presented 41 policies from the NCSBA Spring 2022 Custom Policy Updates as first-read information.  There have been no changes since that time.  Most of the policies contain only minor revisions while others have more notable changes (see below).  Three policies are recommended for recission.  One policy (6220) contains local changes in addition to the recommendations from NCSBA.  There are no new policies.  Dr. Weaver will answer any questions you may have.
