Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School Board Delays Final Decision on Technology Use Policy

During the recent Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School Board meeting, members decided to delay final approval of Policy 634, which governs electronic technologies’ acceptable use. The board intends to wait until the completion of the second reading of the related Policy 524, which addresses cell phone use, before moving forward. The board plans to revisit Policy 634 in August to incorporate necessary references from Policy 524 once it is finalized.

05:10Assistant Superintendent Dr. Belmont presented the ongoing revisions to Policy 634, clarifying that the changes primarily involve transferring the cell phone use language to Policy 524, which had been approved for a first reading at the previous meeting. Board members concurred that it would be prudent to wait until Policy 524 is fully approved to ensure consistency and accuracy in the references between the two policies. There was a brief discussion about the possibility of addressing the changes in one session, but the consensus was to proceed cautiously with a first reading slated for August.
