Changes to Board Bylaws, Policies, and Administrative Regulations typically begin at the Board Policy Subcommittee, which meets quarterly. At each meeting, Subcommittee members may:

1. Carry an item forward for further discussion and possible revision at a future Subcommittee meeting.
2. Refer the item to a regular Board meeting for full Board discussion in public.
3. Recommend the item for approval “as is” by the full Board at a regular public meeting.

At the May 22, 2025 Board Policy Subcommittee members reviewed and made changes to Board Policy and Administrative Regulation 5145.13: Response to Immigration Enforcement recommended by the California School Board Association (CSBA).  Unfortunately, these changes did not include prior recommended changes suggested by a Board member.

Because the next Policy Subcommittee meeting is not until October, staff is bringing the previously proposed revisions directly to the September 9th Consent Calendar. If approved, the Board Policy and Administrative Regulation will be aligned to current AUSD procedures and practices.
