Key Handbook Updates for 2023-34

(from Venable LLP) On a regular basis, independent schools should reflect on their current policies and procedures as stated in their handbooks, analyze which policies still function well and which do not, and update the handbooks so that they reflect the school's current practices. Consider reviewing these points for the forthcoming school year: 

Student handbooks:

• Appropriate Interactions Between Adults and Students
• Student Behavioral Issues and Discipline
• Revisiting and Revising COVID-Era Policies

Employee handbooks:

• Appropriate Interactions Between Adults and Students
