School board members are our neighbors who make education their business. They invest countless voluntary hours of their time, and often their own resources, to help steer a steady course for our children and local public schools. A chief responsibility of the district is the safety and well being of all students and employees. With this in mind, the Board of Trustees approved a Bloodborne Pathogen Exposure Plan for district employees. This plan will be reviewed annually.
Copies are available for review at all administrative offices and school clinics in the district.
The public is invited to attend. The Board of Trustees approved entering into an Interlocal cooperation Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding with the Galveston County Juvenile Probation Board and participating county school districts for the provision of educational services for The About Face Day Program 2000-2001. This program will provide an opportunity for students, including special education students, under the jurisdiction of the juvenile courts to obtain teacher-directed instruction and assistance in course work. The course work will include, but will not be limited to, reading, language arts and mathematics. DISD will administer the education program.
